To spent time with the Elderly and show spanish cultural traditions to the Erasmus students
We went to this Day Care Center to make Christmas Cards, a increasinly common tradition in Spain, with the Elderly. This tradition consist on writing in a card your wishes to your loved ones and decorate the house during this Christimas time. The elderly decided which sentence they want to write and we decorated those cards together with glitter, tickers, colorful tapes, etc. The psycologist with the social worker and all the staff of this Day Care Center helped us with the most dependent people so everyone can have their own Christmas Card.
Everyone felt very happy for being independent enough to make this Christmas Card, and are ansious to show their families what they have done in the Day Care Center. The Erasmus Student also felt very happy for helping the local society and knowing better some spanish traditions and are looking forward coming to this Day Care Center again.
