Month Activities X-Listprocessor-Version: 6.0c -- ListProcessor by Anastasios Kotsikonas X-Mailer: AOL for Macintosh sub 147 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Status: OR Thanks so much for all the ideas that list members have been sending publicly and privately (mostly the former, appropriately) for interactive games I might be able to adapt to use with a group of seniors during Heart Health month. Keep 'em comin', if you have any suggestions that haven't already been posted. I'm sure I'm not the only one finding this interesting and helpful, and any ideas I don't use right now, I'm going to save and will probably use at some future time. I have an additional question: Any thoughts about the construction of a game for use with a group, in the front of a room? I'm wondering about size of the letters/numbers, although the questions themselves will probably be written on a card that I'll have in my hand to read aloud. I guess what will be on the "board" will just be the game title, and identifying titles or numbers on the doors or squares, depending on whether I do Jeopardy, bingo, or something else. I'm thinking aloud, here..... (being an ENFP... :) Those of you who've done this, is poster board too flimsy for such a thing? I'm thinking of all the practical angles to this now.....how to do it, how much it will cost to make it, whether I want it to last in perpetuity, etc.! This *is* rural health outreach, so as you can imagine, there's very little money for such things, and I often have to lay out my own funds, and then wait a very long time to be reimbursed! So I'm wondering how to construct something that may last awhile, but not be too expensive..... Any thoughts about this greatly appreciated! THANKS again!
