This Day in History for Seniors: September

Martha
This is a great idea thank you

Our adult day program used this resource everyday right after we discussed the current events with coffee. Now, we do Zooms two times per week and the participants can see the information on their computer screen and follow along.

Since I'm a staff of 1 with 65 residents, I can't change the "This Day in History" every day - no time!  So I print off the whole month, put it in a binder, and leave it on the table below the Activity Bulletin Board.  Someone (not me) flips over to the next day all month long, and I've observed residents holding the binder on their lap and sitting on the comfy chair by the bulletin board reading "today's" entry.

Our residents look forward to On This Day.

My seniors absolutely love this! What a wonderful feature that you offer. Thank you so much!!

Thank you so much, that's fantastic.

Is it going to become a regular feature? I would love to use it at 10AM teatime each day but do appreciate that it is a lot of work.

We will also make good use of this activity over morning coffee, Thank you

Where are the answers to the riddles?

I had no idea Golden Carers posted something like this! LOVE IT - and so will the residents.

Our residents love this. I tell them every morning what happened on this day.

Thank you, there are a lot of ideas to see and learn here.
Great site!

Yay. These are the best. I know there is a lot of work compiling these but they are just the BEST.
Thank you
