WATCH: Seniors play live version of Hungy Hungry Hippos
Everyone’s looking for fun ways to pass the time while stuck inside, and a nursing home in Wales came up with a great idea for their seniors. They’ve been cooking, doing crafts, and playing games. The best game they’ve played? Hungry Hungry Hipps. But now just the board game, they’re playing it with the residents. Balls in the middle of the floor, residents being pushed in wheelchairs, and the residents with poles that have baskets on the end.
This is so great, and I just want to take the time right now to thank all the incredible people taking care of our seniors in nursing homes. We see you and appreciate you.
