Creative teaching --Games/tools?

[goingback]

Are there any websites that people know of to find creative nursing games. I have heard of RNtertainment and Medical monopoly. Any others?

Someone also said they had seen some type of beachball that had nursing questions on it.

Anyone hear of these or others? Or know of any cool sites.

Here is a site that I have used many times....they have lots of creative tools to use in class presentations, as well as games, books, etc:
