I am just returning from a nice spring break trip with Randy. We went to Amelia Island, Florida. We stay at the Seaside Amelia Inn. The weather was perfect. Randy and I are good vacation partners. This trip we did a lot of walking and people watching on the beach. Some of our favorite places to eat included Cafe Karibo, the Crab Trap and Sandy Bottoms. I did have some time for a little art.
I downloaded free mandala coloring pages. I used color sharpies for my coloring tool of preference! Be sure to check out the Sharpie website for other fun ideas. When I think of my playtime, I like some quieter activities. I also don't want to have to think about what I am creating. Coloring allows my mind to wonder free. It is a very relaxing activity. I discovered I can listen and carry on a conversation when coloring! Time to throw out those those electronic devices!
If you know some older people who live alone or in an assisted living facility/nursing home, you might want to buy them a coloring book with crayons or other coloring tools (Sharpies). I even like coloring in children's books! You could even ask for the children's menu with crayons when you dine out! Embrace that inner child!
