We enjoyed a lovely trip to Halifax Jungle Experience.

We saw a lot of beautiful plants, flowers and there was even a banana tree.

They also had beautiful butterfly's and red headed terrapins. It was so hot in there so that the plants and animals would flourish, we were all really warm but I think it added to the experience.

We took our little teddy bear Shirley. She is made from one of our lady's night dresses who sadly passed away, she now goes everywhere with her friend.

We had a lovely day and after being there we went for some lunch.

A good day was had by all.

Hope you like the pictures.

Here at Howgate House this week we have been sorting lots of different things.

We had a tub of socks to sort out, some coloured beanbags in to tubs, red and yellow counters to separate, noughts & crosses and Jenga bricks that we coloured two of each at both ends in different colours.

The residents really liked sorting the beanbags and the red and yellow counters. The one that took the most concentration was the socks and the Jenga bricks.

There was also lots of laughter from the residents when they got it right and a lot of competitiveness between them.

With the noughts & crosses, one lady kept putting O X O and shouting OXO I win. It was a lot of fun.

It was a good day all round. I think it will have to be put in to our activities rotation as it was a big hit.

We had games like pin the clover on the leprechaun and throw the gold coins in the pot of old. We had temporary tattoos for staff and residents, we had green shamrock glassed, deelie boppers and Irish flag hats. Everyone had a lot of fun.

Melanie from activities got dressed up again and everyone loved it, the residents were really happy and there was lot of laughter.

We also had non alcoholic Guinness and Nozeco, buns and some fifteens, an Irish sweet snack made from digestive biscuits, cherries, marshmallows and condensed milk, it was a big hit with the residents and staff.

We had a day filled with laughter, conversations about holidays to Ireland and Guinness, a lot of people really like Guinness.

Hope you have fun looking through our photos.
