If you have discovered that your elderly loved one is a bit down during this holiday season, you might find that helping them to decorate their home with some lights and a small tree (even tabletop size can bring the festive feeling!) can be what they need to boost their mood. This gift of help through decorating and helping your loved one can help them to get into the holiday spirit.
When it comes to spending time with elderly loved ones, sharing the simple joys in life can be very rewarding. If your loved one loves to bake but you would prefer that they not attempt this alone, a festive cookie decorating afternoon can give you peace of mind and give your loved one a wonderful day. Take the time to whip u some homemade treats the share with family and friends.
This is the gift-giving season; a time filled with joy and goodwill. This is the time of year when most families get together and spend time with one another. There’s usually laughter and good food to be shared and many look forward to the memories that are sure to be made. This time of year is a great time to think of those who might find getting around to these festivities a bit difficult to do on their own. If you have an elderly loved one who would love to be more active in their community and get out and about more often, this is the time of year to give the gift of help.
You may have a family member who provides the bulk of the caregiving for an elderly family member. Perhaps they would like a break to attend to their holiday needs. Giving the gift of help would entail offering to care your elderly loved one, even for just a few hours, so your family member can get away to recharge and regroup in preparation for the holidays.
The gift of help doesn’t have to come in the form of a long-term commitment; it can be simply a ride to and from the local mall for shopping and dining out. Your elderly loved one might also see this assistance as a gift from the heart, as well, because this would be time spent together. This holiday season is the perfect time to carve out time to spend with those we love.
