activities to do with older people.

I’m in a program at school that requires me to go to a Hospital nearby, in there I have several task that I need to perform in order to pass. And one thing I need advice on is an activitie to do with an older person, 65+. I’ll have a small group, about 5-8. They are all very kind, and just love being around younger people. The activities need to be health related as well. I was thinking something to do with exercises they could do for there body and mind, like memory games. Any ideas are apperciated. Thank you.

Answer #1

Create scrapbooks.

Write up a smoothie recipe (or healthy cookie recipe or something) and make it with them.

Play scrabble (mental health).

Answer #2

You can include brain training games like Scrabble, it is a great brain exercise for older people. It is also an ideal game for them considering that they have a rich plethora of words in mind.
