Step into practically any store at this time of the year and you will be inundated with displays of sale-priced backpacks, pencils, notebooks, and lunchboxes – and aisles full of parents scrambling to check off all the items from the kids’ back-to-school supply lists.
And while we might connect the new school year with children, it is imperative to shift our mindset to include seniors and the benefits of lifelong learning which includes:
Along with onsite classes, there are endless opportunities to learn online, in the comfort of home. And in many instances, classes on the web might be offered at no charge, or at a reduced rate for older adults who are not seeking to earn academic credits. Older adults can select from a number of topics of interest, and work at their own individual pace and according to their own schedule. AARP offers a list of a number of top e-learning websites for seniors here, that range from cooking tips to learning new languages, computer programming, musical skills, and much more.
Morning Glory Home Care, a provider of trusted home care in Belleville and the nearby areas, is devoted to ensuring senior loved ones optimize quality of life each day, and we delight in supplying the help essential to promote lifelong learning. Our experienced care team can help research courses of interest, set up online programs, provide transportation and accompaniment to onsite classes, and even manage housework, meals, and laundry to enable older adults to focus on their newfound passion!
