The Throw and Tell Activity Ball is a fun and interactive way to spark conversation, encourage movement, and promote social interaction in care settings. Designed for both one-to-o ne and group activities, this simple game combines gentle exercise with meaningful engagement, making it perfect for older adults, including those living with dementia. By catching and passing the ball, participants are invited to answer light-hearted, easy-to-relate-to questions printed on its panels. These questions are carefully chosen to prompt memories, personal experiences, and preferences, creating opportunities for reminiscence and enjoyable conversation. The game not only helps with hand-eye coordination but also encourages self-expression, reduces isolation, and helps carers learn more about the people they support in a relaxed and non-confrontational way. How it Works - When someone catches the ball, their thumbs will land on two panels. They simply pick one panel and answer the question written there. This creates a natural and fun way to share memories and start conversations.
