Hi Tonya How proactive of you to think about Halloween Halloween can be one of the residents favorite activities In order to think about what to do you have to think about you budget your residents abilities iand resident likes and dislikes Also you have to think about available technology and how strict your facility is for the COVID-19 virus I like to mix fall with Halloween because Halloween is only one day but fall last several months especially if you are making decorations I like to have decorations for each season that makes things a lot easier Here are some ideas for Halloween that you can adapt and modify depending on the items I listed previously https://www.goldencarers.com/10-activities-for-halloween/4875/ Here are some things for fall https://www.goldencarers.com/6-ideas-for-celebrating-autumn/5554/
I just love love love this site - each time I'm glued to the many and awesome ideas to engage with our seniors. I recently downloaded some of the crossword puzzles and these seniors are fabulous to work with. That is just the tip of the iceberg. In this new chapter of my life, as semi-retired, I am so enjoying my time with seniors and watching them light up; I feel I've found a new niche. It's extremely gratifying. As to the cost of membership, it came out of my pocket - I rationalised that it was only about $3/month, less than many magazines. So keep up the GREAT work!!! Thanks again Golden Carers!!!!!
