2015 Recreation Therapy Calendar

Great calendar. Could you consider adding White Ribbon Day in November?

Remembering the clothesline

Recently a Senior told me that if a woman was going into labor (city/urban edge Melbourne), women would hang a single nappy on their clothes line. The nappy line would wend its way to the mid wife's house and she would know to come out. Nappy semaphore!

Toys for Boys

A new activity has been posted by a Golden Carers member: Toys for Boys

Judy 6th Sep 2014 teacher

As a Father's Day event we put on a 'Toys for Boys' display of toys in our Men's Shed. Meccano, model sets, train set, cars, box brownie cameras and photos, cigarette cards/football cards, marbles and stamps. Lots of stories about their childhood. Those with larger families remembering stamps and marbles (free stuff). One person looked carefully at all the bubblegum football cards. Great family stories told. Then we had a bbq.

Love all the great ideas. Love Golden Carers. I have used so many of your ideas since I started and all with great feedback with staff who like to join in too. What a difference I have seen in the residents, more joining in because of giving them time to express what they like to do and always offering for them to join in, whatever the activity. Having so much to offer but not overwhelming them, just a little at a time and someone will show their enthusiasm to give it a try. Thank you Golden Carers.
