Today we went on a 'memory walk' to Hickling House - the elderly peoples home in the village. We talked about what dementia is - how your memory isn't as good as it used to be and as you get older your brain doesn't work as well.
We took balloons from the Alzheimer's Society on our walk and when we arrived at Hickling House we sang songs to the elderly people. We think they enjoyed our performance! Then a nice lady called Margaret played a memory game with us using giant playing cards. We finished off our time at Hickling House with some cake, biscuits and squash!
When we left Margaret gave us some goody bags! We had a lovely time and promised to go back and sing some more songs to them soon.
Below are some photos from our day...
