Tired of the same familiar activities with your parents? It might be time to try something different. The experts at Naborforce, an on-demand service for seniors, have come up with a list of exciting activities to spend time with older parents:Glass-Blowing Session A glass-blowing session might be the last thing you would expect from a senior outing, but here at Naborforce, weve seen this as one of the most exciting experiences weve had on our platform! Make sure you research your host, as glass blowing instructions can vary. We partnered with The Glass Spot RVA, which had step-by-step guidance that resulted in a beautiful finished product, prompting our client to call it A Million Dollar Day. Dance Class for SeniorsWhat can be more fun than dancing in the middle of the day? This could be a great activity to do with Mom- whether its salsa or tap, she will have something to talk about for days. Plus, dance classes are a great way to encourage fun and active aging. Research by the National Institute on Aging shows that movement in older age strengthens the mind, which potentially delays the onset of certain debilitating diseases. Here at Naborforce, weve had our fair share of dance classes. Just the other day, one of our community members took our client to a line dancing class at Pine Camp Community Center in Richmond, VA. An Art Class Outing or At-Home Project Art expression is such a great way to calm the mind, hone in on creative skills and create new memories, essential components for independent aging. You might already know of an art class in your area or senior living community, but have you ever tried setting up something at home? Kits sold by Artful Aging are in-home watercolor packages that also come with instructional videos, perfect for senior DIY-ers!Build-A-Bear Workshop OutingIt might be a while since youve stepped foot inside a Build-A-Bear Workshop, where you can customize a stuffed animal with your personal preferences, down to including a note embedded in the toy! We love Build-A-Bear as an activity for older parents, mainly because we saw the impact during one of our Naborforce visits. Our client wanted to customize a teddy bear for his wife. He booked a Naborforce visit to accompany him to Build-A-Bear, where he recorded a heartwarming note in a voice box inside the bear. To this day, our clients wife cherishes this gift as a reminder of their love and connection.An Evening at the MuseumAfter youve tried an art class at home (see out-of-the-box idea #2), maybe its time to hone your art skills by going to a museum. Check out the events calendar at your local art museum to see if there are any special offerings or exhibitions.  As an example, the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts offers many adult classes. If walking too much is a concern for your loved one, know that many places might offer wheelchair assistance. Plus, in the summer the local museum is a great way to cool down!

For many, the decision to age in place is more than just a practical choice it's a deeply emotional connection to the place they call home. A home is not merely a structure; it's a treasure trove of cherished memories, a sanctuary, and a canvas painted with the vibrant hues of life's moments. Every photograph or keepsake holds a story, enveloping you in a warm embrace of familiarity.This profound attachment to one's home is a potent elixir for well-being. It's the place where families were raised, communities were built, and a lifetime of memories was etched into the very fabric of its walls. For decades, perhaps, it has been the backdrop to your story, bearing witness to every milestone, every laugh, and every joyful moment.The true essence of aging in place lies in the consistency it offers. Maintaining daily routines, immersing oneself in beloved activities, and remaining an integral part of the community these are the elements that keep the spark of life burning bright. It's about being the captain of your own ship, steering life's course in the direction you choose.But the benefits of aging in place extend beyond the emotional realm. Familiarity with the home's layout and established community networks provide practical advantages, easing daily tasks and ensuring a helping hand is always within reach when needed.Naborforce can help!
