A fun way to get your staff and your residents grooving is to have an era dress-up week! To do this, you would setup a schedule for a week, assigning outfit of the day to a particular decade. For example, your week could be: Monday is the '50s, Tue is '60s, Wed is '70s, Thu is '80s and Friday is the '90s.

To make the activity even more engaging, setup story telling period where residents can sare a story of their own from the decade of the day. It is great fun for the staff and reminds residents of the fun times they had their entire lives.
