The first intergenerational toy exchange is in the books! Every Monday, we introduced our preschool friends to toys from our childhood. Today it was the Slinky! Most of our kiddos were already familiar with the Slinky - a toy invented by accident in 1943! It just goes to show that a great toy is truly timeless!

January's programming theme is "A Fresh Start - Mind, Body & Spirit." In keeping with that theme, Jessie Raspberry (LMT) of Home Body Massage Therapy visited our communities and offered specialized massage therapy to some of our residents. Jessie comes to us with years of expertise in senior massage, focusing on hands, arms, shoulders, head, and neck. The experience left our residents with one question - when is she coming back?!
