We are planning a watermelon social and watch the Juneteenth parade on TV.

ways to celebrate June 19th in a nursing home.

This is a Great way to engage residents on a Saturday morning group gathering. I made some changes and the residents were reminiscing and storytelling about the outfits. Thank You.

These short stories were excellent. I used these stories to follow-up with my Bible study class. My topic was on forgiveness. The resident enjoyed the short stories.

This is good activity for late stage dementia. Also you can use your colorful bingo chips. Before the Bingo game I ask the residents to sort there chips by colors - But be carefully for residents putting them in their mouth mistaking them for cookies.

I used this activity for a small group of dementia residents and after the second try they were having fun.. They told me it was fun trying to recall what each one had said. At the end of the activity residents began to improve on there socializations, and helping each other to recall what was said and what they purchased at the market. Using the market idea was excellent. Thank You. Marie. USA

I used this activity as a warm up before we began our main group engagement. Residents were thinking outside be box with other answers. This was a good social activity for interaction. Residents were smiling and helping each other. Thank you for sharing this. activity. Marie.
