Stump the Therapist

I just bought a book called The Ultimate Fake Book. It has 1200 songs in it. Theoretically it should have every song I want to sing with the residents. I already know that it doesn't because I looked through it when I got it, but I thought it would be fun to play a game of Stump the Therapist. I figured I would get them to give me songs and we'd look it up in the book to see if it's there. IF it's not, I'll make a list of those songs to look for them in other books. If it is there we'll sing it. I'm bringing my keyboard so I can play songs I don't know. I don't know if it's going to work or not, but it seemed like a fun thing to do.

Songs about Food

here is a list I found about food songs

Social Wellness group for Healthy Aging Month

Today I had the residents list 5 things that they do to keep themselves Socially Well. I asked them things that they do to be social.

They gave me these five things:
1) Playing bingo/Cards
2) Going out to Eat
3) Going to Daily Devotional
4) Going Shopping
5) Going on a Date

I tried to come up with songs to fit each category.

So far this is what I have:
1) the song Bingo for Bingo (weak, but I need to think on this a bit
2) The Song Jambalaya for the going out to eat...will find more songs for tomorrow's group
3) All number of reglious songs for the Daily Devotional (their favorite category)
4) the songs Five Foot Two and Sweet Little Alice Blue Gown for clothes shopping and fashion. Other song ideas for this one include Easter parade, Itsy Bitsy Teenie Weenie Yellow Polka Dot Bikini; All God's Children Got Shoes; Second Hand Rose
5) Hey good Lookin'; Daisy Daisy
