How Elderly Seniors Can Enjoy Spring Break

While some seniors may like to get on a plane and travel around the world, for some, it may not be so feasible. Whether they have mobility or health issues, that doesn’t mean they can’t enjoy a break from the everyday routine. Seniors who keep busy can improve both their mental and physical health. If you are looking for some fun things to do during Spring break this year, here are some tips!

Look in Your Own Backyard

Now that the weather is warmer have some outdoor fun! You can invite friends over for a spring-themed barbeque or arrange for a backyard tea party with card and board games. Ask your guests to dress up in their spring best!

Take a Trip to a Museum

From the west end to the east end of Long Island, there are plenty of museums to visit. Whether your favorite seniors love art or history, there’s plenty to see and do at these local museums this spring:

• Parrish Art Museum
• Nassau County Museum of Art
• The Heckscher Museum of Art
• Sagamore Hill National Historic Site
• American Airpower Museum
• Long Island Maritime Museum

Take in a Show

You don’t have to trek all the way to NYC to see a Broadway show or see your favorite band. Long Island has many theatres around town where you can take in a show — and at less of a cost to boot! Here are some local Long Island theaters to check out this spring:

• Patchogue Theatre for the Performing Arts
