Sometimes we just need a short, fun art project to make on a rainy day! This one is quick and easy but still fun to do together. Your loved one will get a kick out of using a straw to blow the paint around.
For this project you will need:
FREE boots template: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1PHcS...
Wax crayons
Watercolour paints
Paintbrush & water
A drinking straw

* Please note* The information I present in my videos is based on the therapeutic benefits of art. This is not the same as art therapy, but rather art as a therapy. The practice of art therapy is done with a certified art therapist in a safe, structured environment.
Without doubt, the long road of dementia comes with a lot of big emotions and other hurdles; for the person with the dementia; the caregiver(s); and other friends and family members. Mental health is very important and I strongly advise that you speak with a qualified professional - whether they be an art therapist, a music therapist, counselor, psychologist, or any other mental health professional who is certified in their field - to negotiate the challenges that you may be facing.
