Twistin Tots Golden

Activity Description

Bringing young children and elderly residents of care homes together for fun music sessions. Research has proven the benefits to both elderly residents and young children – from increasing self-esteem and promoting friendships to greater smiles and more conversation for elders. Plus the old and young bring new energy, knowledge and enthusiasm to each others’ lives, building relationships, and helping each person to benefit from the knowledge and attitudes of each other. Our Twistin Tots Golden classes aim to get the young and old working together to have fun – hunting for bears, swimming with goldfish, or tapping toes, amongst other musical activities – helping older residents to get more active and to socialise more and younger ones to develop their speech, language and motor skills and benefit from the time and attention that the elderly residents can offer.

Sessions are scheduled intermittently and everyone is welcome, so follow us on social media, Happity or check our website for dates. All money raised from these sessions supports our not-for-profit parental support group – Tinies & Teacups.
