Description
With more than 100 graded communication activities for individuals and groups, this practical book is an excellent resource for health professionals and activity providers. An extensively revised and updated form of the extremely popular "Activities Ideas", which was originally published in 1983, this book was originally compiled for use with people with dysphasia. This book is also valuable for working with the elderly and day-centre clients, and can be used for group warm-ups. The majority of activities require little or no preparation and can be adapted to suit different abilities.
