bouquet
Don’t you think many older adults like flowers? Giving a bouquet as a birthday present is a lovely idea.
A seasonal bouquet that matches their birthday can help them feel the passage of time and the changing seasons.
What’s more, flowers and plants are said to have positive effects on our psychology.
We want older adults who spend long hours in care facilities to feel comfortable, too.
The colors, scents, and shapes of flowers are believed to help stabilize emotions and promote relaxation.
Because scent preferences vary, it’s a good idea to choose flowers with a gentle, subtle fragrance.

Popular as a gift for health-conscious seniors, the “Health Foot Stepper” is a surprisingly practical item you wouldn’t expect to find at a 100-yen shop.
