Hi Susan I’m glad the residents had fun doing this whether they are displayed or not Remember it’s not the pride but the process Thanks for sharing Any chance you could take a picture of some??
We made salt dough stars and the residents enjoyed it we ended up with so many. One resident in particular came every week to paint them and he had made most of them too. Sadly not sure if we will be able to display them this year due to the COVID restrictions which is disappointing but will store them ready for next year if we can't. The stars are in various sizes and some of the smaller stars I added initials so they all have their own star. Added glitter to the wet paint and hey presto a Christmas star.
Thank you very much to Golden Carers for creating such an informative website. You have assisted me and my colleagues in developing a fun and engaging activities programme that is meaningful and interesting for our Bristol Care Homes residents. You are also our plan B in the event that plan A does not go as planned. We strongly advise all activity workers to join you.
