Halloween Bingo

This afternoon we played Halloween Bingo. We had to spell out the word WITCH instead of Bingo to win. We had fun trying to remember to call out WITCH instead of BINGO!

Visit to the Butterfly Conservatory

The residents at hampshire enjoyed a visit to the Joseph Popp Butterfly Conservatory. They walked among hundreds of live, free flying butterflies and over twenty species of tropical birds from around the world in the 3,00 sq.ft. indoor conservatory herbarium. They also spotted some free-ranging tortoises, chamelions, frogs, and lizards hiding among the exotic plants. What a fun experience!

Decorating Pumpkins

With members of the St. Mary’s youth group, residents here at Hampshire House decorated pumpkins on Saturday to get ready for Halloween. It was a great bonding experience for the residents and the members of the youth group and both enjoyed it immensely.

fondue party

Hampshire House had a great time last week. We enjoyed a program about Switzerland. We sure learned a lot of things about this country that we did not know. Then we enjoyed their favorite food - chocolate fondue. We tried bananas, strawberries, angel food cake and marshmellows dipped in the chocolate. They were all so good we could not decide which was better.

Fun with Crafts

One of our more popular activities here at Hampshire House is doing crafts. Residents get to enjoy a hands-on project that they can keep when they are done. They use them to decorate their rooms/doors. Many of the crafts residents make are also used to decorate the facility for seasonal occasions.
