At Village at Oakwood, an assisted living center in OKC, we believe that engaging in seasonal activities is essential for enhancing the quality of life for our residents. Seasonal activities not only provide a sense of purpose but also foster social connections and promote physical health. Join us as we explore fun and enriching activities tailored for every season!

Winter Activities

As the chill of winter sets in, there are plenty of warm and inviting activities to enjoy. Indoor gardening is a perfect winter pastime, allowing residents to cultivate herbs and plants in cozy spaces. Not only does this offer therapeutic benefits, but it also adds a touch of greenery to the environment.

We also love crafting and DIY projects during the winter months. Residents can come together to create holiday decorations, from handmade ornaments to festive wreaths. These group projects foster camaraderie and provide an opportunity for socialization.

To warm the heart and the soul, we host warm beverage socials where residents can enjoy hot chocolate, tea, and delightful pastries. It’s a wonderful way to gather, share stories, and celebrate the season. Plus, cozy movie nights feature winter classics, creating a delightful and relaxing atmosphere for all.

Spring Activities

With the arrival of spring, the world awakens with vibrant colors and fresh air. At Village at Oakwood, we embrace this change by organizing nature walks in local parks and gardens. These guided walks allow residents to appreciate the beauty of nature while enjoying the physical benefits of light exercise.

Spring also brings opportunities for gardening workshops. Our residents can participate in starting a community garden, learning about planting, and caring for flowers and vegetables. This not only enhances our surroundings but also provides fresh produce for our meals.

Additionally, art classes focusing on spring themes, such as watercolor flowers, allow residents to express their creativity. Collaborating with local artists for workshops provides a unique and enriching experience.

Summer Activities

Summer at our assisted living facility in Oklahoma City is filled with joy and laughter. We host outdoor barbecues, bringing together residents and families for delicious meals and great company. Healthy summer recipes make these cookouts enjoyable and nutritious.

What’s summer without ice cream? Our ice cream socials allow residents to create their own sundaes, choosing from a variety of toppings for a delightful treat. Themed days featuring different flavors keep the excitement going all season long.

Outdoor games like bocce, cornhole, and horseshoes bring out the competitive spirit in our residents, fostering friendships and active participation in community life.

Fall Activities

As the leaves turn and autumn settles in, we celebrate with harvest festivals at Village at Oakwood. These events feature local produce and activities such as apple picking and pumpkin carving, bringing a festive spirit to our community.

Seasonal crafting workshops allow residents to create autumn-themed decorations, enhancing our spaces while encouraging creativity. Additionally, we organize workshops on seasonal cooking, where residents can learn to make delicious pies and hearty soups.

To fully embrace the season, we arrange scenic drives to view the stunning fall foliage, making the most of Oklahoma’s beautiful landscapes.

At Village at Oakwood, we are committed to providing a vibrant and engaging lifestyle for our residents. Seasonal activities are a fantastic way to stay active and connected throughout the year. We invite residents and families to participate and share their favorite seasonal activities as we create lasting memories together.
