The programs on ActivityConnection are:
- Complete and ready-to-go – not just ideas and internet links. (Includes printable props, photos, large-print handouts, promotional signs, downloads – everything you need to make it happen.)
- Designed with several options for each activity – crucial when working with mixed groups.
- Easy and rewarding to present – volunteer and care staff-friendly. (“You make me look good.”)
- Interesting and thought provoking – not the usual “what’s your favorite …” off-the-shelf, canned programs.
- Up-to-date and forward looking – not locked in the past.
- Adult and sophisticated – even if simplified for ability level (i.e. travelogues, book reviews, art & music appreciation, skits, biographies, brain aerobics, wellness programs, educational series …)
- Yet entertaining, enjoyable, and sprinkled with lots of humor.
Using ActivityConnection:
- Increases the number of programs per day without adding more staff.
- Increases the variety of programming – using the Baker’s Dozen Activity Categories standard.
- Increases the number of independent, self-directed, and spontaneous activities.
- Increases the number and variety of one-on-one, small group, and individualized programming.
- Increases time spent presenting programs and being with clients, while decreasing time spent planning, preparing, and promoting programs.
We actually save you more than we cost!
If you save one hour of preparation time per month, the money you might have spent on a craft book just to get one pattern, the cost of one music CD or set of bingo cards, then we have saved you more money than we cost.
