Reflecting on Last Week’s February Care Home Activities
Last week, our residents enjoyed a variety of February care home activities, each designed to bring joy and laughter into their days. On Monday, February 10th, we kicked off the week with some pampering time as our regular hairdresser visited in the morning, followed by a lively afternoon of bingo. Tuesdays brought a breath of fresh air with a morning garden walk, followed by creative arts and crafts in the afternoon. Wednesday was a lovely day of reminiscing in the morning, where we looked back on cherished memories, and more crafting fun in the afternoon.
Thursday was flower arranging day, where our residents created stunning floral designs in the morning, and then enjoyed a relaxed afternoon playing games in the lounge. February 14th saw us celebrating Valentine’s Day with sweet treats and friendly conversation in the afternoon.
Our weekend continued with a delightful sing-along on Saturday, followed by a fun game of “Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?” in the afternoon. We wrapped up the week with scrapbooking and a casual “Social Sunday,” a great opportunity for our residents to catch up and relax.
