The calendar has some spooky activities this month! First, we have to make the building look spooky, and what better way to do that than by making ginormous spiders to decorate the outdoors?! We only need but a few supplies for this DIY! Some black trash bags, wired hangers, and leaves from the outdoors! Next, we are decorating each nurse’s station with ghost garlands made from yarn and felt. By the end, the whole building will be festive! We will be having our annual spider scavenger hunt for the residents, and on Halloween a spooky scavenger hunt for the staff!
We love an opportunity to dress up, so the week before Halloween we will have a spirit week!
Monster Monday – Dress as a silly Monster! (Sully, cyclone, 4 arms, etc.)
Tacky Tuesday – Dress as tacky as you can! (Mismatched clothing, purple eyeshadow, goofy shoes, etc.)
Wacky Sock Wednesday – Wear your favorite silly socks! (Bonus points if they’re Halloween.)
Throwback Thursday – Recreate an old costume you had growing up!
Freaky Friday – Be as scary as you can be!
Then, of course, on Halloween wear your costume!
