Theme: Almost
The theme this month is "Almost". How will storytellers interpret the theme? Well, anyway they like, really. It could be a near-miss, good or bad. It could be a second-place finish in a competition they'd hung all their hopes on. What are those moments where life very nearly took a different path?
Expect laughter, surprises, honesty, and connection.
L-Skip (Lethbridge Seniors & Kids Intergenerational Program) brings the ages together benefiting children and seniors. The program creates opportunities to learn new skills and methods of doing things; encourages children to accept people of all ages, capabilities and limitations; develops social and emotional connections for children and seniors; alleviating isolation and depression for seniors; and filling a void for children who do not have grandparents available to them. The program pairs children (12 years and younger) and their caregivers with seniors. Participants will engage in active play, facilitated games, quiet time together working on puzzles, art or reading and close off with songs.
