The senior residents at the Warrensville Community Apartments learned tips for healthy cooking – recommended food servings and portions, as well as healthy snack suggestions. They learned how to cook in small portions, and how to use one ingredient several ways. We served healthy snacks as a great way to start the new year!

The folks at the Board of Developmental Disabilities learned about different holidays around the world, including Christmas, Hanukkah, Kwanzaa, Diwali, Las Posadas, and Boxing Day. They learned about the songs, foods and customs of each holiday. We also sang traditional holiday songs and played games. Lots of fun!

The residents of Brookdale Rockefeller’s memory care unit, and our guests from the Board of Developmental Disabilities, created some beautiful artwork today. We provided them with torn pieces of paper, and they created their own “snowy day” winter scenes.

Lots of holiday cheer today at The Manor at Hamlet Village. We did a sing along of everyone’s favorite holiday songs, and there was lots of singing and clapping. The hands-down favorites were “Jingle Bells” and “Frosty the Snowman”!

We had a fun day with the residents of Brookdale Rockefeller’s memory care unit, and our guests from the Board of Developmental Disabilities. We brought wooden snowman cutouts and taught them how to decorate them to create their own cute winter snowman. There were lots of creative ideas!
