Good afternoon everyone. Summer is almost over and was wondering if anyone has any neat ideas what to do with the seniors for back to school activities?
Good morning. I wanted to reply by saying, I work at many Senior Dining Centers. So all the seniors that attend are very alert and active. Actually it was their idea to have a Christmas in July gathering. We will be having many decorations up. a great meal will be served, and we will be singing many Christmas carols with our volunteer who plays the keyboard. I do understand it could be confusing in a facility, with dementia or Alzheimer's, But it could also be very uplifting as well.
Thank you for all the great ideas. I have most of it already planned I have been searching. Our events are only one day. So we have to make it all work in one day. Thanks for all the ideas, love this group..
Hello Everyone. Looking for as many ideas for a Christmas in July Celebration, at one of my Senior Dining Centers. I have live music coming, but was looking for ideas on how to set up the tables, decorate a tree? Etc. Has anyone ever done a Christmas in July celebration? All ideas welcomed. Thank You !!
Hello everyone Thanks for all the great input. I do have another question. Is there any way you can type your activities calendar up on one background, then try it on another background, to see what looks better without retyping the whole calendar. Kind of like a highlight the whole thing then copy it to another background? TIA.
It's really wonderful to see our clients so engaged with the puzzles and word searches, the Trivia is really popular and our participants get a buzz out of getting the answers correct. Golden Carers is our "Go To" resource on a weekly basis and it is rewarding for our working day to add it to our activity programs.
