I have done this. I got small circle foam wreaths. then I got fake flowers ( big and small), butterflies,birds. then I let the residents rearrange them and I hot glue the objects.
How about making an Easter Tree..........? https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B09J8KK2J4/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_image_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&th=1 These eggs come with pens to decorate them, then just hang them on some sprayed tree branches ( Pussy willow/ lambs-tails or similar) and decorate further with fluffy chicks or bunnies. We are doing one where I work, the residents sounded quite excited as never had an Easter Tree before !
Golden Carers is a wonderful resource. I really like the idea that more of it is going to be in video format as this grabs my participant's attention! Even after 20 years in the activity director role, the ideas in Golden Carers are often refreshingly innovative and really useful, even on the fly. Your help is invaluable! Many thanks!
