A TV or livestream of the Eurovision Song Contest
Bingo-style checklists or visual cards for each player
AAC devices or communication boards
Optional: printed icons or sound buttons for fringe words (e.g., “glitter,” “score”)
Before watching, assign each participant something to watch for (e.g., flag, costume change, mention of “Abba”).
Use AAC to comment when their chosen item appears: “Look that,” “I see it!”
Keep a fun tally of who spots the most moments. You could model words like “Mine!” or “More!”
Model reactions and interjections: “Wow!,” “That good,” or “Don’t like that.”
Adapt the game with visuals, sounds, or prerecorded phrases for lower-pressure participation.
