So far we have down a birdhouse , butterfly house, cookie decorating mugs filled with goodies....but I am running out of ideas....HELP!!!
Hi Michelle
Read this article and the comments that go along with it for ideas
I like the activity packet idea which you can change up every time you hand things out

Hi Michelle, you could try rain gauges to monitor rainfall, some may like it. Also, growing succulents, unraveling sweaters for recycling the wool, making tissue flowers for Mother’s Day, drawing famous artists' emulation pictures, making bookmarks, and Abayomi rag dolls as gifts.

We give our clients a booklet every week filled with wordsearch, crosswords, games, cartoons and more. We always include features like "this week in history", "animal of the week" as well as reminiscing pages, poetry, optical illusions and so much more. They love receiving the booklet and it gives them something to work on at home throughout the week. The booklet is usually 25-30 pages long and we keep things lighthearted and fun!
Hi Jen
Wow

Thank you for all you do
