Everyone can celebrate Valentine’s Day—yes, including senior citizens. Since it is the love month, it is the perfect opportunity to show your love and affection to your family and spend quality time with your senior adults.

Life’s At Home Care decides to round up a few of the many brilliant Valentine’s Day activities that you and your senior loved one can enjoy at home to make the occasion extra special:

• Put up cute decorations
  You and your senior loved one can create a festive environment by sticking up heart garlands and heart-shaped balloon sticks around the house and on the table. Make it a DIY activity so you do not have to buy the artwork. It can be fun for you and your elderly!
• Make heart-shaped treats to share
  If your senior loved one enjoys baking, make it an opportunity for them to show off their baking skills. If not, then you both can learn together and make homemade cookies or cakes that look like hearts. Whether or not it tastes good, the experience of bonding together over baking is always memorable.
• Watch a romantic comedy
  Indulging in cheesy and funny storylines together with your senior loved one can lighten the mood. Cringing and laughing together at the predictable scenes can be fun!

We hope you like these Valentine’s Day ideas! Senior citizens do deserve fun activities to boost their wellness. They always love family time, so do not forget to invite family members and friends over!
