Residents from Green Park Care Home Celebrate Mickey Mouse's Birthday

As it was Mickey Mouse's birthday, residents and staff from Green Park Care Home thought what better way to celebrate than by watching cartoons all day!

They organised a projector to be set up in the living room and streamed all the old cartoons on there, residents sat back and relaxed with a cup of tea and cake as they watched Mickey Mouse on the big screen.

They began the Mickey Mouse marathon with the first-ever Mickey Mouse film, Steam Boat Willie, this was a firm favourite amongst the group and everyone thoroughly enjoyed watching it. This was not only a fun activity but also acted as a form of reminiscence therapy as it reminded the residents of when the tv was first invented and how they used to enjoy black and white tv programmes.

It was a lovely day for everyone as they got the chance to relive some old memories whilst having fun and watching cartoons!
