What a fun filled day we have all had! On the 19th September we participated in fun activities focusing on our different senses through the magic of Disney. We started the day off with a costume parade where we all dressed up as our favourite Disney characters. We then went around the garden going to each themed station to see what fun there was to be had!
The stations themes were:
TOUCH – Tarzen (feeling the different textures of material that represents each character)
SOUND – Lion King (listening to short phrases from the film using switches as well as playing an array of African instruments)
SMELL – Princesses (smelling different scents that represent the 12 different princesses)
TASTE – Alice in Wonderland (Tasting cakes and drinking flavoured tea/using flavoured lip balm)
SIGHT – Mickey Mouse short films
Ursula’s Cave (immersive experience walking through the tunnel and exploring the items inside)
Disney themed games including aiming boards and large card games
The dining room was set up as a Beauty and the Beast dining hall with the all the characters joining us too! We all enjoyed the French cuisine that our kitchen staff put on for us all.
A massive thank you to the Speech and Language team for putting this event on and all the other therapists for helping on the day.
