  1. 3 Fun Halloween ActivitiesFor Seniors to Enjoy withtheir Entire Family

  2. The month of October marks the beginning of fall, cold weather, and the countdown to Halloween. There are lots of fun holiday activities appropriate for all members of the family, from children to older adults. If your loved ones live alone or in another city, make a point to involve them in the festivities. Experts at Arvada CO, home care company shares the three activities your loved ones can enjoy with the entire family.

  3. 1. Watch a Scary Movie The best idea to set the mood for Halloween is to watch a scary movie. Make some popcorn, sit down on the sofa, and bundle up in a fluffy blanket for a fright movie night. Make sure your loved ones stay as comfortable as possible. Don’t feature a horror movie that can leave little ones having nightmares or can be risky for seniors with a heart problem. Instead, opt for a family-friendly movie that can put all of you in the spooky spirit. An excellent option is Hocus Pocus (1993)that combines all the myths circulating the season, like witches and curses with an extra comedic flair.

  4. Other great options include: • 1: Halloween town (1998) [Watch Trailer] • 2: It's the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown (1966) [Watch Trailer] • 3: The Bride of Frankenstein (1935) [Watch Trailer] • 4: Invasion of the Body Snatchers (1978) [Watch Trailer] • 5: The Thing From Another World (1951) [Watch Trailer] • 6: The Nightmare Before Christmas (1993) [Watch Trailer]

  5. 2. Host a Costume Party Invite your children’s friends or neighborhood children to your house and include grandparents in the exciting costume party. Your senior loved ones will enjoy watching all the children dressed up as little gobbling, ghouls, and ghosts, but make sure they are in the appropriate outfit as well. As seniors are often shy about dressing up like a witch or ghost, so encourage them to get into the groove of Halloween by suggesting a skeleton costume. They can also go for a joint costume that requires two people. For example, grandma and grandpa can be a peanut butter and jelly or ketchup and mustard.

  6. 3. Play Halloween Charades Playing charades is quite simple. When it’s someone’s turn, he or she must send other players a message just by gestures or poses, without talking. For instance, if someone wants to signal the word bird, he or she may flap arms like wings. Whoever guesses bird first, wins the round. Use the same idea for Halloween topics. You can pick from movies, songs, monsters, and activities. The children will love pretending like their favorite spooky characters and your senior loved ones will certainly be amused watching the little ones give their best effort.

  7. Your loved one may need assistance if he or she has a medical condition or is on a diet plan. You may not be able to fulfill their health or medical needs. In this case, an Arvada home caregiver can be very beneficial to take care of on-time medications, mobility assistance, and on-time meals. It is also a great way to allow family members spend quality time with their loved ones.
