ABILITY GO! MORE GAMES

A New Way of Writing

It does not matter anymore whether you are right or left handed. For this activity, try writing as well and as fast as you can, holding a brush in your mouth or between your toes. This is an unusual way to write, which is used by people who cannot use their hands.

Star make-up

Nothing could be simpler than applying make-up in the mirror, right? But can you put make-up on just by following your partner's instructions. Can you make it look natural and attractive? Be sure not to make any mistakes! Blind or visually impaired people have to face up to this type of challenge every day.

Discovering Local Products

You are blindfolded and your mission is to recognise products just by tasting or smelling them. You will soon be aware of how important smell and taste are to fully enjoy life.

The Feeling Box

Put your hands into a box full of objects and listen for a description given by your opponent. You have to pick up the right object - all without looking, of course! You will soon discover how important your sense of touch is.

Apple Races

Holding an apple under your chin, run towards your partner and pass on the apple so that they can cross the line with the apple under their chin. Using your hands is strictly forbidden. This game will help you understand how disabled people always have to be resourceful to communicate effectively.

A Spare Pair of Sleeves

Getting dressed is easy, you do it every morning. But this daily action becomes much more difficult when you are deprived of the use of one of your arms. So keep trying, and learn to adapt.
