Today the children enjoyed another visit to one of our favourite places, the care village. The children were eager to get there as we had a special activity we would be attempting that day. The adults had lots of card, wool and scissors in their bags. Yes, you have guessed it, we would be spending the day making pompoms. The children got to work quickly threading their wool through the card. The residents quickly joined in and before we knew it, it was pompoms galore. Some of the residents remembered making pompoms when they were younger and knew all the tricks to get the best out of the wool.

Some of the children continued their interest in board games, matching games and dominoes and the residents were quick to help support them. Our photo wall also proved a highlight this week with one of the residents and children looking at these together and sharing stories of what they have worked on. We had some new residents visit us today and we are very hopeful that they will be there on our next visit.
