Bowden (occupational therapy, Salford U., UK) and Lewthwaite (rehabilitation medicine, based in Canada) present professionals caring for elderly people a year's worth of themed activities to entertain and engage patients. The activities are presented in a calendar a week at a time. Some pertain to the time of year at hand while others would be appropriate year-round. Reproducible materials and detailed procedures are included. Activities include discussions and storytelling, word problems, crafts, and quizzes, among others.
