Fun holiday activities for friends and family

4 Festive Activities for Seniors During the Holidays 

December is full of holidays for everyone, from Christmas and Hanukkah to New Year’s Eve. December is a time of celebration, community, and joy. FellowshipLIFE invites you to take part in the festive season with these holiday activities ideas for seniors. 

Go caroling

If you’re looking for a great outdoor activity for seniors in winter but aren’t quite up to sledding down the big hill, caroling is a great option. Caroling has been around since at least the 14th century. Whether you decide to dress up in Dickinson attire or in a pair of cozy jeans and warm flannel, getting a group of your friends together to entertain your neighbors with song is a great way to spread holiday cheer. 

Bake something delicious

FellowshipLIFE communities offer amazing dining options, but sometimes it’s fun to make something yourself. With a full kitchen included in your senior living space, you can make your mom’s traditional Christmas cookies, your nana’s word-famous latkes, or any range of senior-friendly holiday recipes. Just make sure you consider any dietary restrictions before you get started! 

Make toys for kids 

Make use of the FellowshipLIFE community craft rooms, art studios, and woodworking shops to bring joy to the children and loved ones in your life. Whether you’re making your grandkid’s favorite dinosaur or wooden planes for kids in need, hand-made gifts always have that extra something special. 

Plan a ball-drop party

FellowshipLIFE offers many great community areas and a great community to enjoy them with. If you’re looking for festive indoor activities for the elderly during the holidays, there’s nothing more fun than planning your own New Year’s Eve party. Whether you want to watch the ball drop in New York or plan your own, getting a group of neighbors to ring in the New Year is a great way to end the holiday season.
