Looking for ideas on how to keep a fidgety senior from getting into trouble. My 100 y/o stepdad

12. A few suggestions...

Put bird feeders outside the windows and watch the birds, try to identify the birds. Grab some adult coloring books or multi-media tablet, markers or paints along with a book on getting started in drawing or painting or coloring. Order a basic book on memoir or autobiography writing and a voice recorder or tablets and pen and let him get started writing some of those stories from childhood or other interesting moments in his lifetime. If he likes woodworking crafts, go buy some pre-cut birdhouses for him to put together and paint, then hang outside the windows. If his eyesight isn't bad and his coordination is good you could get him a book on how to tie fishing jigs. There are people who actually do that for a business in retirement. There are always jigsaw puzzles, leather work, whittling, puzzle books if those match his interests. Hope this helps.
