Our residents had a great time assembling their sundaes with various toppings while enjoying their "Dirty Shirley" or Shirley Temple drinks. We can't tell you how many times the phrase "I can't remember the last time I had a sundae" was said throughout the night. They loved it! Everyone was able to take an extra sundae with a cap to their rooms for a tasty treat for a later time.

We said goodbye to February with a Tissue Paper Mosaic Heart craft! We had a lot of fun with this craft. We painted our glue onto the hearts, placed our scrunched-up tissue paper in various spots, then cut out our hearts to glue onto some bright cardstock of their choice. Everyone loved their results!
