“You can discover more about a person in an hour of play than in a year of conversation.” Plato
For our "play date" this week we tried a new restaurant that a local food editor had featured, then we drove through a wildlife park - seeing the first bison calf of the season (delightful), then went swimming in a hot mineral spring water pool. The water in this pool has been believed over the decades to be healing because of the temperature and the mineral content. A fun day. We both came home tired and watched the next segment of "The Kennedys" after dinner. It is so important for us to take time out of the tasks to insure fun. What are some things you can still do with your care receiver? I try to pick things that both he and I, as dementia caregiver, will enjoy.
