HOW TO HELP YOUR OLDER IN THE FORTY?

Esta entrada también está disponible en: Spanish

From Toldos Guardamar we want to continue proposing ideas, so that in this time of confinement we can find ways to help and help ourselves.

The impossibility of leaving home has made us limit our contact with our elders to technological means such as calls, WhatsApp or video conferences. In fact, with the passing of days, we run the risk of turning these contacts into routine and with the consequent loss of interest.

That is why, we propose a series of tips that will help and will help us to make contact with our elders innovative and with greater sociological benefit.

Tips to help your elders

• There is also the offline world. That’s right, we must not forget that this way of communicating for decades has been used by our elders to communicate with family or friends. We encourage you to use the paper support to be innovative and your elders will not “wait” for this communication with them. Remember that we should avoid going outside as much as possible, then take advantage when you go out to make the purchase to send the letter. Any tobacconist you can find a stamp and you can make the envelope at home. Turn the letter into a message of hope and encouragement, make anyone in your family unit participate in it and let the heart write its lines.

• They propose a contest to your elders. Yes, it is the ideal way to invest time even if it is in the distance. Any theme can be good, but online costume contests with the family are breaking records of likes on social networks these days.

• Plan ahead with them now. It is the ideal time to plan a trip with your elders in the future. That’s right, they miss us when we go on a trip without them and planning an outing with them, even if it’s a weekend, will make them feel valued.

From Toldos Guardamar we want to “give life to whoever gave them to us”.
