Hi Judy
This is wonderful
It’s great that you have this kind of relationship with the daycare facility
I am sure that the residents and the children at the daycare center appreciate what you were doing
Keep up the good work
Hi Susan, yes it is great to involve children. We have a local daycare facility whom we like to invite in on these events. We can't at the moment due to Omicron being quite bad in the community. Instead the residents are coloring Easter pictures which we have laminated. They will also do a card for the children. I will deliver these to the teacher. The teacher has told me the children are making bookmarks and a card for our residents. Just trying to keep the relationship going because community contact is so important, especially contact with children.
I always remember doing the egg and spoon race growing up in England....maybe it could be revisited with a twist :)

Great idea
How would you suggest modifying it so seniors could do it
I guess you could invite some children either family members or students to have the races and the residents could cheer them on
Easter bonnet making and parade at our befriending social social today. Paraded to 50’s tunes and had some great dancing … prizes for 1st/2nd/3rd. Absolutely brilliant day!!
Here’s a couple..
Hi Nicky
Thank you for sharing these pictures they are great
Last week we remininced 'Easter when you were young' . This week I'll bring in this information. Thank you
Thanks Haley for your interesting article on Easter Traditions of other countries. I think the residents would really enjoy just hearing about these traditions as a type of discussion.
We always had an Easter extravaganza where we invited children that lived in the community to join us
We had a lot of fun games and we also had contests
We also hired a balloon artist which was a big hit
The residents made a non sewing blanket that was raffled off
