2014-02-04 07:36:07 PM ltimlin We have a garden on our 5th floor.
2014-02-04 07:36:29 PM aferguson I like that ideas of growing grass, like sunflowers, fairly easy, and observable changes occur fairly rapidly
2014-02-04 07:36:31 PM janice13 you can get planes and butterflies that can fly, we had our residents deocrate them and then fly them in the hallway
2014-02-04 07:36:32 PM ltimlin Going to try and get more resident involvment this year.
2014-02-04 07:36:33 PM kathyhughes we would get soil and spread the seeds and residents had to take care of the baskets
2014-02-04 07:36:33 PM tonyap1 we are havring a easter egg hunt
2014-02-04 07:36:37 PM joytuyh cut off the milk jug and use bottom for grass

2014-02-04 07:36:52 PM aferguson HOw do you get kites to fly inside?
2014-02-04 07:36:58 PM elizabethwoosley I'm looking at gardens on rolling carts. with pots. We could take them from floor to floor and everyone could be involved to the best of their ability.
2014-02-04 07:37:01 PM kshirer we host easter egg huntsssssprek every year
2014-02-04 07:37:02 PM kathyhughes we would make them

2014-02-04 07:37:55 PM heathereubanks my scroll bar isnt keeping up with the conversation :@
2014-02-04 07:37:55 PM joytuyh great idea about fans
2014-02-04 07:37:56 PM sheilab70 our local volunteer fire department hosts an easter egg hunt on our front lawn every year - they let residents help put candy in the plastic eggs they "hide"
2014-02-04 07:37:56 PM kathyhughes and decorate the halls with them
2014-02-04 07:38:03 PM tonyap1 families love to help
2014-02-04 07:38:08 PM aferguson I love that idea! We did fan decorating for a world luncheon we had at the adutl day center-animal prints with shells and such, was great!
2014-02-04 07:38:12 PM bwesterman kites are a GREAT idea to decorate
2014-02-04 07:38:23 PM kshirer ask your high school ag class about the carts? they mighcan make them
2014-02-04 07:38:25 PM elizabethwoosley heather, scroll to the end and hold it for a few seconds. It should they keep scrolling.
2014-02-04 07:38:34 PM sbond108 Thats a nice idea sheila - one my facilitites we did an egg roll/hunt in our court yard and our maint. director dressed as the easter bunny
2014-02-04 07:38:36 PM kc13 we make some and decorate with them
2014-02-04 07:38:51 PM elizabethwoosley Kshier, that is a great idea!

2014-02-04 07:39:16 PM aferguson OUr fire regulations prevent us from doing any craft item on wall, or so I have been told, my administrator also thinks it looks childish, but at the adult day center, my old job, we did lots of wall decorating-it was great to have residents decorate their own place
2014-02-04 07:39:17 PM leland54 night
