Do you have more empty chairs than people in your Exercise Class? If so, then you may want to change a few things this winter, like having residents play fun games instead of doing monotonous arm and leg movements.<\/p>\n

Games allow residents to still get the arm and leg movements that you like to provide in your Exercise Class while having much more fun. They also provide opportunities for fun competition as well as prizes that can be used as motivation. If you want to add more exercise to the games, simply alter the games by having residents stand when it\u2019s their turn to play.<\/p>\n

Here are 7 unique floor games from notjustbingo.com to add to your activity calendar this winter to fill those empty seats in your Exercise Class.<\/p>\n
