Hi all, I just thought I'd share my ideas for celebrating Indian inderpendance day in our home. We are very fortunate that we have a large number of staff from India here. I asked some of the carers if they would help me create an authentic indian celebration. We are going to get as many staff as possible to dress in traditional indian clothes, a group Indian carers have offered to make lots of foods to try and teach us traditional dances, we will dress the room in indian travel pictures and flags. Everyone is very excited about it already which is lovely. We did a similar Scottish day as we have a number of Scottish resisdents and staff and that was a huge hit.
Indian food is so tasty and the colour and texture of the traditional clothing is really lovely. I think it will be a day that many of your residents will enjoy.
I absolutely love this website and get most of my daily activities from it. Love the monthly diary too. It has so much to offer for different stages of dementia residents. I love the artwork, games, and quizzes which we use every day. People are constantly asking where do I get my ideas. Thank you so much!
