Target mat
Target throwing is a consistently popular quiz game for the elderly in day centres and care homes. It is accessible to everyone and guaranteed to get even the most reluctant players involved, it only takes seconds to set up!
This type of activity helps retain hand/eye coordination and is great to include as part of a gentle exercise programme for older people.
Nursing homes tell us that this is one of their most requested games for people with dementia. It is sociable, competitive & encourages conversation, often leading to reminiscing about fair ground games from the past.
Our Giant Target Mat has been designed and tested by Activities to Share, so we know how well it works in most care environments, including hospitals, where it is used as an activity for patients with Alzheimer's disease.
Target Mat measures 95cm x 95cm. Made from durable PVC, it rolls up for easy storage and comes with 4 assorted coloured bean bags. Now includes 60 question cards!
