My residents found the web too difficult to make. So next time we used a nice piece of lace which we attatched to the ring before adding the dangles. They looked beautiful!
We did Talk like a Pirate Day last year! The residents really got into it. Talking like a pirate is fun -savvy? My team all dressed up as pirates and residents wore eye patches (cut out printed paper and elastic) and temporary tattoos. We marked the day with pirate quizzes, a wheelchair sword fight (foam), changed our Aussie flag to the jolly roger, watched the movie 'Pirates of the Carribbean' and sang some rollicking sea shanties. What shall we do with that drunken’ sailor?! The day concluded with a swashbuckling outdoor party complete with rum balls and a cursed pirate ship (cardboard & crepe paper) for residents to destroy with cannon balls (wet newspaper). Arrrrr!
I truly am so grateful I have found this group. I am looking forward to your emails everyday and it feels like it has given me a new lease on my working life as I went through a rough patch for a while. So thank you from the bottom of my heart for what you do!
