Season of Love
Let’s perform a dance to Pinky & the Killers’ song “Koi no Kisetsu” for an older adult’s birthday.
Just like Pinky & the Killers, wear a rounded derby hat with a curled brim and dance.
Of course, singing is a great option too.
Both the dance and the song set to “Koi no Kisetsu” are likely to delight seniors.
Some may even have personal memories connected to this song.
As they listen, it might bring back recollections of those days.
It’s a recreation activity that can spark conversation and make the celebration even livelier.
tea party
A tea gathering is an event where guests are entertained with tea, and it’s often associated with being held in harmony with each season.
This concept hosts the tea gathering with the current season as its theme, inviting guests to gently sense the transition of the seasons.
Seasonal sweets and surrounding decorations are key points for conveying the time of year, so let’s be attentive not only to how the tea is prepared but also to these details.
It’s also recommended to recreate tea ceremony etiquette as much as possible, and for those with experience, to have them try preparing the tea themselves.
In conclusion
Those were ideas for performances and entertainment that seniors could enjoy.
Events and performances offer many benefits for older adults.
They can move their bodies to relieve stress, laugh, and engage in conversations that promote communication with others.
I hope the performances at the event create moments that seniors feel are truly fun.
