Hi all !!!!
I just got hired as activities director at a day facility for seniors. Does anyone have any sweet ideas that we can present to them as a welcoming gift? Because of COVID, they are NOT allowed to take anything home from the facility so it would have to be edible or something that can go in our garden or even in their boxes (every client will be given a personalized box for their craft and activity items because of the new rules and regulations) any suggestions would be great :)

I absolutely love this site. I find the resources and ideas invaluable in my role as a Recreational Activities Officer in a large Nursing Home. The abundance of ideas, quizzes, and printable forms are helping me help the residents find their inner “fun” which had previously been missing. THANK YOU from myself and the residents!!
