    Description

    DIY - Gingerbread House & Crossword Puzzles - Nursing Home

    DIY Gingerbread House

    We’ll kick things off by creating adorable crafts with paint, and craft supplies. Volunteers can assist residents with setup, painting, assembling pieces, and adding creative touches. No experience needed — just patience and a smile!

    Crossword Puzzles (Immediately Following)

    After our craft time, stay for light refreshments and warm conversation with our residents. This is a wonderful chance to unwind together, share stories, and enjoy a calm afternoon.

    • As always, activities are subject to change, and volunteers will be notified if adjustments are needed.
