I am working on my January calendar and I plan to do a "Let it snow" themed day. I have a couple of activities I plan to do such as making crystalized snowflakes, sugary tortilla snowflakes, Frost Bingo and possibly have a snowball fight with fake snowballs. I am wondering if anyone else has any cute ideas?
You have some great ideas already and sounds like you all will have a ton of fun. Keeping with the snow theme maybe you could make homemade snowglobes? All you would need are a small glass jar, a plastic figurine for decorations (maybe wintery trees), glitter, water, and hot glue or super glue. Glue the figurine to the inside part of the lid, add water and glitter to the jar, put the lid back on and superglue it shut, then turn it upside down and give it a good shake!
Golden Carers is a phenomenal and creative resource of activities for the senior population and people with dementia. They also provide resources and support for the caregiver too. I liked all the different types of activities that were available. You could pick and choose from a plethora of items the activities appropriate for your group. Keep on doing what you are doing. So many people's lives have been touched and improved by your website. Your website is a blessing to many organisations.
