Kool-Aid Day Activity Bundle for Seniors

Bring colorful summer fun to your programming calendar with this Kool-Aid Day Activity Bundle for Seniors. Designed for senior living, assisted living, adult day programs, and memory care communities, this ready-to-use resource includes trivia, games, creative activities, and hands-on experiences that encourage participation, reminiscing, and social connection.

A Complete Kool-Aid-Themed Activity Program for Senior Engagement
