Thanks again for this fun activity. I had eleven residents take part and they all enjoyed making the mixture and feeling the texture of the dough whilst kneading the dough. Painting the next day again was fun and sticking the magnets on the back. Each resident was proud of their shape and have these being displayed on their mirror in their rooms. Thanks again for the great ideas.
Hi Tracy, thank you for sharing. I am glad it worked well for you.

Hi all, Our day club (demential specific) has just completed this activity with a group of pre-school children who meet with us each month. We did it over 2 months.Created one month, painted the next. It was a fantastic activity. And even though some of our creations were on the "odd" side, the activity itself was so worthwhile. It was a great bonding activity to be part off.
I just renewed my membership. Couldn't be without the brilliant info and activities you supply to do my job with satisfaction. The resources are brilliant and made my job easier, more fun and so much more interesting. I work at a day centre for the elderly and they love all the ideas. Many thanks!
