One of the senior's favorite games that we played with them was bowling. We played all different games like bean-bag toss, horse shoes, croquet, ring-toss, and balloons and noodles with them. They always voted for bowling when we gave them the option though. It was so fun to see how happy they would get when they would get a strike. I also loved watching when one senior would help another one out. Some of them were very unsteady on their feet, so they would need the assistance of someone else to help them keep their balance. One senior with a slightly higher functioning level than the rest would always be the first to jump up and help someone who looked like they could use a hand. I thought it was very endearing that even at the age of 90, this woman could still find joy out of helping someone else out.
