What can the kids make for a trip to the nursing home?

Is this a visit or a gift?

The kids are doing a visit to the nursing home for school. They want to make something for the residents. What should they make?

What about making something from the recycling bin?  That’s a lot of fun, right?

Yes they could sing but they were hoping to also leave something small for the residents. Do you have any ideas? Should they make something small?

Some really great gift ideas for this might be:

Gift bags filled with easy-to-eat snacks (e.g. crackers and cheese, granola, fruit leather, etc.).

Small travel sized containers of lotion, shampoo, etc.

A simple note with an appreciation of what the person does for us as a society, how they make us better, etc.

An inspirational book for the resident to read, which has been carefully selected based on the resident’s interests.

A lotion with the recipe or a label on it to show the residents how to make it.

What about a small craft with their class?  That would be a fun activity that could be a memory of the day.  Maybe an art project, or working on a science experiment?  They might make something for the nursing home residents, but they might also work together and make something for themselves as a group, and have fun doing so.  Have you considered a book that’s one of their favorites?  What if the kids each contributed a page to it?
