Hide AdResidents at Wykeham House care home enjoyed an eggs-tensive range of Easter activities, but one of the highlights was a visit from the children from Ivy Cottage nursery.
The children gave a wonderful Easter bonnet parade and made lovely handmade Easter cards with the residents to send to their loved ones. They then set off in pairs to look for the many Easter eggs hidden around the home.
Rachel Stevens, life enrichment lead at Wykeham House, said: “As always, we’ve all been looking forward to Easter. It’s such a lovely time of year – the residents loved spending time with the children from Ivy Cottage and had such fun watching the children find the hidden Easter eggs even hiding some themselves.
