Meadow Woods residents had such a great time welcoming the students from Indian Mounds Elementary for a fun intergenerational project!
Our seniors and the students worked together in groups to make beautiful wreaths, each one with its own unique decorations. One student even exclaimed, “I’m having so much fun!” — and we couldn’t agree more!❤️
Check out these photos of the process and our finished wreaths!

Universal Yums Treat Box is the best!! This month we tried a variety of snacks from Scandinavia. Not only is this a fun shared experience, but we learn interesting facts about other countries and their traditions. We found several new treats we really like. Three cheers for Universal Yums! 👍
Another example of a GREAT partnership! Love your costumes, All!! 🎃

🍬 Candy Factory Escape Room! 🍭
We had a sweet time hosting a Candy Escape Room with our Meadow Woods residents! Teams worked together to complete each station and unlock the secret numerical code to “save” the candy factory.
A big thank you to Natalie for her creative candy props and clues bringing the experience to life!
This brand new activity encouraged teamwork and problem solving. It was such a fun (and tasty!) way to connect and think in new ways together. 🍫🍬🎉

Residents at Meadow Woods had the good fortune to see the best show in town…The Addams Family with . The show was amazing, and our local students are so, so talented. We also saw the finished quilt that we made as an intergenerational project together with the students a few weeks ago. What a joy to see our new friends on stage doing what they love!
And the best news?? There’s still one show left. Be sure to head directly to Kennedy High School today at 2:00 pm for their final performance of The Addams Family. 🎭 ❤️
Our special thanks to the Kennedy High School theater program for offering a free performance for local veterans and seniors! We had a blast!
