You’ve always enjoyed Thanksgiving with your friends and relatives, but perhaps never spared a thought for those somewhat less fortunate. How about visiting an old age home this year and spending some time with those who’d appreciate every minute. Here’s what you need to keep in mind to organize a simple yet touching get together with such special people on the occasion of Thanksgiving Day.
Get A Party Organized
Instead of making your visit appear like an act of charity, keep the whole motive focused on the fun part. Let them feel that they are also part of the social world. Keep a historical, fancy dress or even a circus theme for the party. Ensure that you get the costumes for them. You can even hire jugglers to entertain them and involve the old people by giving them a chance to try out their skills. Keep in mind that the main aim of the party is to spread smiles.
Food For Merriment
Get packed food comprising of muffins, doughnuts and pralines. Keep liquor out of the party scene and opt for juices. You can go for the basic snacks like burgers or hot dogs. Do not keep runny and messy food options. Avoid heavy foods that may not be liked by older people with a weak digestive system.
A Token To Remember
Gift them small mementoes like idols, openers and key chains. Along with that give them flowers so as to make them feel positive. You can opt for a bunch of exotic orchids along with roses. Nothing can be more healing than a colorful bunch of calendula to spread cheer in their rooms for days on end. You can convey your love and care via the fresh flowers.
Keep The Legal Side Clear
Last but not the least; seek out proper permission before hand in order to avoid getting into last moment mess. The idea is to make the old people feel wanted on this special day. They have lived the entire year without any visitors but that should not make them feel unwanted.
Make the most of the occasion by spreading smiles among the special people.
