Sensory Experience
One of the highlights of the festive period is decorating the Christmas tree, and at the Social Care Exchange in Lincoln this is no different.
The task was enjoyed by both, with Ann Marie expressing the fact that she preferred the red glittery baubles as they reminded her of her favourite characters – Mickey and Minnie Mouse, and Mark enjoying the sensory aspect - the feel of the different textures and the noise of the baubles being shaken in the bag before he chose one.
Decorating a tree is a wonderful activity for all involved and can also be a great sensory experience with the brightly coloured lights, the feel of the different textures, from soft tinsel to rough glittery balls, and not forgetting the wonderful smell of the pine needles. It was certainly a seasonal job enjoyed by Ann Marie and Mark.
The duo enjoyed lunch at the SCE before returning home for more festive preparations.
