Activities for Adults with Learning Disabilities

Activities for adults with learning disabilities: Having fun, meeting needs by Helen Sonnet and Ann Taylor provides "over 60 sessions of fun and engaging activities." Each activity is ranked by level of assistance required, accessibility, volume of noise, messiness, and reading skill, for tailoring to individual participant needs. The book is divided into categories of cooking (cookies, fruit punch), arts & crafts (calenders, photo frames), games (picture bingo, netball), special occasions (Valentine quiz, fancy-dress walk), drama and dance (talent show, country dance), and outside events (barbecues, local walks). The activities are based on the authors' experience in the UK-based MENCAP Gateway Club and are perfect for use in group homes and day centers.
