With Easter around the corner, OSCAR Care Group has created three Easter themed colouring pages for residents, children and everyone in-between to enjoy.
Yes, that’s right!
Colouring is for everyone, no matter your age!
Colouring is an effective stress reliever and mood booster.
We’ve gone with a simpler design with uncomplicated details, as these are best for those with dementia and young children. These large Easter themed images with little intricate detail will mean this is a soothing and fun activity for all. Share these A4 printable colouring pages with your aged care lifestyle teams, forward to your childcare educators, and start colouring in today.
Colouring can be a fun activity to promote socialisation and co-operation through a group activity, but can also be enjoyed even if someone prefers to colour in alone. From colouring pencils, to texters, metallic pens, highlighters, glue and glitter, and even paint; this Easter Colouring in activity can be tailored to suit all creativity levels!
Embrace your creativity and hop to it!
Colouring In benefits for Older Adults.
This may be a fun hobby for many, but research into colouring activities for those with dementia has shown positive outcomes and therapeutic value through reducing anxiety or agitation in some. Colouring in may assist in reducing stress, improving grip control and motor function and promoting reminiscing and a sense of accomplishment.
We would love to see your work!
Share the completed colouring pages on social media. Use the hashtag #EasterWithOSCAR and tag OSCAR Care Group on Instagram and Facebook. We would love to see the creativity of your aged care residents and children over the Easter period.
We wish everyone an egg-celent Easter!
