Just looking for ideas for a retired farmer to utalise for diversional therapy at sundowning time

Meredith 10th May 2014

Hi Jacqueline, what about a box full of old padlocks, some of them clipped together, give the farmer the keys and tell him you need help sorting them out. Maybe find some hinges, gate latches and drop bolts to sort through as well, or small tools, anything he would recognise from the farm and could tell stories about. Meredith
