Holidays are fast approaching, and now is the time to think of all the fun family activities to participate in! Making sure your elder loved ones are safe and comfortable can be a task. Which is why thinking ahead of time to make sure they spend their holidays doing fun activities can make it all easier.
Here are 5 holiday activities to keep your elder loved ones engaged and entertained this holiday season:
Letting your elder loved ones participate in holiday decoration activities is the best way to make them feel included. Flowering and centerpiece arrangements are wonderful to spice up your home. Not only are they a fun activity for your family and friends to perform, but they also allow you to work on your creative side. It can even be seen as a form of occupational therapy.
Building your own gifts together is a great and safe activity to do with seniors. Take the time to make or build your own presents - whether it's bracelets, decorating ornaments, painting a flower pot... all are fun activities that can help you create a unique gift. Art projects are always fun ways of spending time together.
Decorating a gingerbread house is a holiday activity that can be done with elders no matter their age. It's interactive and fun for the younger kids to participate in as well, because they get to see what it takes to make these holiday treats!
Try to get out of the house and go see a holiday show or concert. If traveling to large arenas or shows is difficult, try to get in the holiday spirit and have a movie night. There are many classic holiday movies that may be available on various streaming services or even new holiday specials that can be found online. It is great to spend time with the people who matter most during this season!
The holidays are a time to give. There are a number of ways to volunteer or help. Creating Christmas or holiday cards for soldiers overseas, sick children in the hospital, or other greeting cards can be an easy and nice way to help those who are lonely on the holidays.
The best way to spend your holidays is by taking care of your loved ones to make them feel safe. These activities are safe and will make your seniors feel included and happy during this holiday season. Planning all your holiday activities ahead - and hiring senior home care services - will ensure you spend time with them in the best way possible.
