Visiting seniors at Christmas
For seniors who are lucky enough to have regular visits from family and friends, the holiday season is synonymous with happy moments in good company. However, far too many seniors feel very lonely on Christmas day and on many other days over the course of a year. If you’d like to have a truly rewarding human experience, you could visit the lonely seniors you know and offer them some company.
WWW.HOMEMAGONLINE.COM
MAKE A DIFFERENCE A senior who lives alone needs regular human contact to stay healthy and happy, whether it’s your grandfather, your aunt or your neighbour. However, to make a noticeable difference in the life of a senior, one visit over the holiday season isn’t enough. So why not plan regular visits throughout the year, and mark them on your calendar?
THE DANGERS OF ISOLATION Studies have shown that the overall health of socially isolated seniors deteriorates much faster than the health of those who have lots of company. In addition, several researchers have reported that prolonged isolation causes psychological distress among seniors and, in many cases, triggers depression.
During your visit, take the time to listen to your friend; have a good talk with him or her and laugh a bit. Do some activities that you both enjoy, such as singing, walking or playing cards. During your Christmas visit, share memories and some sweet treats with this person who is sure to love you all the more.
10 Holiday Gifts for the Senior in Your Life 1. Blankets or throws 2. Custom gift basket 3. Tablets and iPads 4. Kitchen and bath towels 5. Gift certificates to grocery store, restaurant or hair salon.
6. Smartphone 7. Clothes 8. Kitchens Essentials Set 9. Photobooks, Scrapbooks and Custom Videos 10. Health Management and Fitness Options

However reluctant they may be, some people have no choice but to stay in hospital over the holidays. Do you know someone in this situa tion? In addition to being a good listener and lending your moral support, there are plenty of appropriate gifts to make his or her stay a little more cheerful. ASK QUESTIONS Before buying anything, check with hospital staff to find out what the person you are visiting is allowed to have. Why? Because certain illnesses and conditions require
A Christmas gift chosen with love can make a real difference to someone who is hospitalized.
special precautions with regard to the risk of infection and diet. GAMES AND READING MATERIAL Books with different types of crosswords, word search puzzles, Sudoku, anagrams, riddles and trivia are great for helping pass the time. If the person is fond of reading and you know what he or she enjoys, you could also bring magazines or books that will keep them busy for hours on end. COMFORT A hospital patient can be made more comfortable with the gift of a clothing item or a cozy accessory. You could offer a soft throw blanket, scarf, cushion, socks without tight elastic cuffs, non-slip slippers, pyjamas that are easy to put on, a bathrobe or an eye-mask for sleeping.

Poorly made toys too often appear under the Christmas tree and end up in the garbage before spring has even arrived. To avoid this kind of wastefulness, focus on toys that have been tested and approved by consumer associations. TWO TO THREE YEARS OLD For toddlers, opt for toys made of durable, non-toxic materials (blocks, crayons, stacking rings). Choose dolls with well-made clothes that are attached with Velcro. FOUR TO FIVE YEARS OLD For preschool children, offer good quality gifts that develop fine motor skills and
the ability to solve problems (number and letter games, hidden object games, jigsaw puzzles). SIX TO SEVEN YEARS OLD Older children are stimulated by board games, science games and creative materials (painting, jewelry making). Choose books suited to their reading level and you’ll boost their learning and academic abilities. One last tip: resist buying products related to movies or TV programs; although very appealing, they are often of poor quality and probably won’t be popular for very long.
DO YOU KNOW THE TRICK OF ROTATING TOYS? To keep children from quickly losing interest in all their many gifts, savvy parents hide some toys for a while and leave others out for play. After a couple of months, they switch them around. That way, children get excited all over again about their toys, even the older ones. Rely on consumer association recommendations when looking for Christmas gifts that won’t end up in the garbage.

Three Reasons to buy local for the holidays You’ve finally finished drawing up your Christmas gift list and you’re sure it’s going to make all your loved ones happy. You also have to keep working on that endless shopping list for the various holiday gatherings you have to prepare for. But wait; don’t jump into your car just yet. Have you thought about shopping locally? It’s a surefire way to make even more people happy. Not convinced? Here are three good reasons to buy local.
2. SUPPORT THE LOCAL ECONOMY Are you fond of your area? When you buy local it helps your community become more dynamic. That’s because when you spend your money close to home, you’re helping the local economy grow and open up more jobs for the people you know. Promoting economic activity in your region also helps improve the quality of life for workers.
1. PAMPER YOUR TASTE BUDS Nothing beats buying locally if you want to serve your guests the ultimate in delicious food. Locally-sourced food products are fresher, more nutritious and tastier. And they aren’t as likely to be treated with preservatives to make them last longer or stay fresher looking. Vegetables, cheeses, meats, beers and wines are just a few examples of things you can buy locally during the holiday season. They’ll help you make your holiday meals even more delicious than usual.
You’re encouraging local producers, entrepreneurs and merchants when you do your holiday shopping at the neighborhood clothing store or at the artisanal butcher shop. You’re strengthening the trust between producers and consumers and bolstering your sense of belonging to your community. What more could you ask for at holiday time, which is an occasion for sharing and love?
And how about buying local foods as gifts for your favorite foodies? It’s a great idea that will give you the opportunity to make some beautiful and delicious discoveries.
3. GIVE MORE ECO-FRIENDLY GIFTS Choosing local products also means reducing the distance between the producer (or the merchant) and the consumer. This, in turn, helps reduce greenhouse gas emissions and pollution related to the
transportation of goods. And that’s beside the fact that transporting products across thousands of miles generally requires more packaging. In short, buying local is an environmentallyfriendly gesture. Shopping locally is also more convenient. Why go to the big shopping centre located outside of town when your own neighborhood is full of all kinds
of stores and businesses? You’re more likely to find unique gifts, and you won’t have to go as far if you need to exchange them later on. On top of all that, you’ll save on gas and produce less pollution. The only person who could do it any better is Santa Claus. HAPPY HOLIDAYS!
