🎃 Happy Halloween, Forster friends and family! 👻

What a BOO-tiful day at Forster Woods! Our participants and staff showed up in their costumes, and we celebrated with a party full of games, sweet treats, friendly competition, and LOTS of laughs! 🧡

We had a little bit of everything to keep the spooky fun going! From Witch Ring Toss, Snip the String, and Punch a Cup to making pumpkin faces, playing matching games, and filling bowls with spiders, there was never a dull moment! Our participants had a blast taking on the different challenges, cheering each other on, and enjoying time together.

Before the party got started, we also enjoyed a morning of singing with Judy! 🎶 It was the perfect way to kick off a day filled with music, costumes, and celebration.

We had such a wonderful turnout, and the smiles and laughter throughout the day made it all the more special. Thank you to everyone who helped make today such a memorable celebration!

A New Episode of Under the Tree Is Out Now! 🎙️💚

Between caring for loved ones, supporting family, and keeping up with everyday life, stress can sneak up on us before we even realize it. Sometimes, our bodies are the first to tell us something is wrong.

This week, we’re joined by Kirby from Okemos Family Chiropractic to talk about how ongoing stress can affect our physical health, from muscle tension and headaches to fatigue and disrupted sleep. We’ll also explore ways to recognize the signs of stress and take small steps toward feeling our best.

Whether you’re a caregiver, supporting a family member, or simply navigating the ups and downs of daily life, this episode is full of helpful insights and reminders that we’re all better when we have the right support. 💚

🎧 Tune in to the newest episode! The link is in the comments and in our Linktree bio.

You can find Under the Tree on YouTube, Spotify, and Amazon Music! Follow along for more meaningful conversations, helpful resources, and support for caregivers, families, and our community.

We’re glad you’re here. Come join us Under the Tree!🌳

🌽 Chomp Saw Creations: Our participants used the Chomp Saw to cut out cornucopias and fruit shapes! This hands-on activity encourages creativity, coordination, and participation in a meaningful project while celebrating the colors and shapes of the fall season.

🏒 Air Hockey: We also played some air hockey! Whether competing for a win or simply enjoying the game, activities like this encourage hand-eye coordination, focus, friendly competition, and social connection.

A Little Bit of Everything at Forster Woods! 🧁💛

Today was filled with sweet treats, friendly competition, creativity, fresh air, and some exciting updates with our aquatic friends! 🍂✨ Our participants enjoyed a little bit of everything, and we loved seeing everyone get involved in their own way.

🧁 Birthday Cupcakes: We baked our monthly birthday cupcakes to celebrate our October birthdays! Baking together gives our participants a chance to practice following steps, build kitchen skills, and enjoy the excitement of creating something special for their friends. Of course, celebrating birthdays with a homemade treat makes it even sweeter! 🎂

🏈 Sports Talk: We talked sports and filled out our picks for this week’s games! Sports Talk gives our participants a chance to share their opinions, make predictions, practice decision-making, and connect over the teams and games they love. The friendly competition makes it even more fun!

💎 Jewelry Club: Our participants got creative during Jewelry Club, choosing colors and putting together their own unique pieces. Activities like these encourage self-expression, strengthen fine motor skills, and give everyone a chance to show off their creativity and take pride in what they make.

🌈 Parachute Ball: We also played parachute ball! This fun group activity encourages teamwork, coordination, movement, and social interaction as participants work together to keep the ball moving. It's a great way to get everyone involved, share some laughs, and enjoy being active together!

🐸🐠 Tank Update: We have some exciting news about our aquatic friends! Our African dwarf frogs have officially moved into their very own tank, which means we now have TWO fish tanks at Forster Woods! 🫧 One tank is home to our frog friends, while the second is home to our fish, shrimp, and snails. 🦐🐌 Caring for our aquatic friends gives us opportunities to learn about different species, observe animal behavior, and explore the importance of caring for living things. We love having these little friends as part of our Forster Woods family!

From celebrating birthdays to sharing sports predictions, making jewelry, enjoying the outdoors, and giving our frogs a new home, every day brings something special to Forster Woods. We love creating opportunities for our participants to stay active, express themselves, build connections, learn something new, and enjoy time together! 🥰
