Family Orientated Fathers Day Ideas for Dads Living in Assisted Care
Father’s Day falls on Sunday, June 19th this year. If your special father figure is in assisted living rather than at home, it may seem difficult to come up with ideas to celebrate him this year. Instead of helping in the usual strenuous yard work, throwing an elaborate barbecue, or planning a fishing trip, show the dad in your life appreciation through spending some much-needed relaxing family time from the ideas below.
Senior living doesn’t mean you can’t celebrate Dad the same way you may have been accustomed to. Assisted living facilities, such as MorningStar in Des Moines IA, offer colorful and unique living arrangements and community involvement that keeps your father’s life full and enriched while continuing to keep him safe and healthy. Celebrating Father’s Day at MorningStar is special because family is what makes that day important.
If your dad is a bit of a social butterfly, show interest in his life at MorningStar this Father’s Day by visiting with his close-knit community. He will be overly enthusiastic to introduce you to all his friends and neighbors as they have spent much time getting to know each other in the full-service dining room, getting some sun on the patio, or walking in the exercise room.
Spend time together listening to his favorite music albums. One thing parents appreciate is reminiscing on their earlier lives. Bringing some of their favorite music to play in their suite is one way to open them up and remind them of happy memories that they can share with you. If you have children, letting them dance with grandpa is sure to spark joy in the whole family.
Bring in dinner from their favorite restaurant to share as a family. MorningStar at Jordan Creek offers senior living that is in close proximity to great food and shopping which makes it quick and easy to pick up a surprise meal to show just how much you were thinking of your dad this Father’s Day. Taking the time to share this meal as a family is relaxing and a fun way to catch up through treating everyone’s taste buds.
