Some of my residents love crafting but find it overwhelmingly difficult. With the tree already printed out I had to put the glue down for some, where others just did it all but the picking up and placing of buttons was the fine motor skills being used and the conversations re Autumn and then looking outside and connecting the activity to the environment we were in all made for a therapeutic yet creative craft afternoon.
These are fun, we made some last year with our group. We used flat backed canvases so that is was easy for our clients to glue the buttons on. Great activity for any skill level!
Golden Carers is my 'Right Hand Man'... I am ever so grateful for this website. Thank you to all who contribute... hopefully I will share some things myself soon.

I agree palm palms are a safer option
