Experience the Joy of Intergenerational Connections

At Kidd’s Preschool Enrichment Center, we believe in the power of intergenerational connections and its immense benefits for both seniors and preschoolers. Our Granny Group program at the Shaw JCC of Akron provides a unique opportunity for these connections to flourish, creating a nurturing environment that fosters learning, love, and laughter.

What is Granny Group?

Granny Group is an innovative initiative that brings together seniors from the local community and young children from our preschool. This program encourages meaningful interactions, forging lasting bonds across generations. Through various activities and shared experiences, we aim to facilitate mutual understanding, empathy, and respect.

The Benefits of Granny Group

Engaging in intergenerational activities has proven to have numerous positive effects on both seniors and young children. The Granny Group program offers a wide range of benefits, including:

  • Promoting Emotional Well-being: Interacting with seniors can enhance social skills, emotional development, and self-esteem in young children. At the same time, seniors experience a sense of purpose, joy, and fulfillment.
  • Enhancing Cognitive Abilities: Through storytelling, creative projects, and reminiscing, seniors can stimulate cognitive abilities in children while exercising their own mental faculties.
  • Building Relationships: The connections formed between seniors and preschoolers go beyond the program. Strong relationships can blossom, resulting in ongoing opportunities for both groups to interact and support each other.
  • Fostering Empathy and Understanding: Exposure to different age groups allows children to learn empathy, compassion, and respect for the aging population, breaking down stereotypes and creating a more inclusive society.
  • Providing Seniors a Sense of Purpose: Participating in Granny Group empowers seniors to contribute to the well-being of younger generations, giving them a renewed sense of purpose and fulfillment.

Activities at Granny Group

Our Granny Group program offers a diverse range of activities designed to engage both seniors and preschoolers, ensuring a meaningful and enjoyable experience for all. Some of the activities include:

  • Storytelling Sessions: Seniors share captivating stories from their lives, captivating the young minds and sparking their imagination.
  • Arts and Crafts: Creative projects provide opportunities for collaboration, self-expression, and learning various artistic techniques.
  • Gentle Exercises: Seniors and children participate in age-appropriate exercises, promoting physical fitness and well-being.
  • Intergenerational Music Classes: Singing, dancing, and playing musical instruments together create an atmosphere of joy and harmony.
  • Outdoor Adventures: Trips to local parks or nature walks enable seniors and preschoolers to connect with nature and appreciate the world around them.
