Happy National Teddy Bearπ» Day from Real Care! π
Today at Real Care Assisted Living, we celebrated National Teddy Bear Dayπ» with a very special activity created with lots of love and thought by our Activity Director. The goal was simple to remind each of our residents just how loved, appreciated, and beary special they truly areβ€οΈEach resident had the opportunity to choose a teddy bear of their liking, receive their very own adoption certificate, and give their new furry friend a special name. We welcomed some adorable new friends today, including Benjamin Bear π», Olly Bear π», Buck Bear π», and many more!
Our residents were so excited to pick out their bears, name them, share stories, and enjoy lots of smiles and hugs. π€ Teddy bears can provide comfort, companionship, sensory stimulation, and a sense of familiarity, while also encouraging conversation and bringing back special memories from childhood, family, and loved ones.
For residents who wanted another way to participate, teddy bear coloring sheets were provided so they could relax, get creative, and enjoy the celebration in their own way. π¨ποΈ Throughout the activity, residents shared memories and stories with one another, making the day even more meaningful.
And for any residents who were unable to attend the activity, our Activity Director personally went to locate each resident and made sure they received a teddy bear of their own. No one was left out of this special celebration. π
A lot of heart and thought went into putting this together for our residents, and plenty of hugs were given along the way! π»π Every resident deserves to be reminded just how special they are.
Reminder:A Bear from Real Care to you, because you are BEARY special! π§Έπ
