Staying home, reducing meet-ups with friends, or avoiding crowded places like hawker centres and shopping malls. These guidelines are standard advice we all know by now to protect ourselves from the recent surge of COVID-19 outbreak.

Despite that, it’s tempting to ignore the advice and head out, because many people – not just seniors – feel cooped up at home.

The good news is, this month (October 2021), the Government produced eGetai programmes for seniors in Singapore to enjoy from the safety and comfort of home. That’s not all – some celebs even dished out advice on things to do that can keep seniors safe!

We’ve put together a list of ideas to do at home that seniors may enjoy. We hope you find them useful and share them with your loved ones too!

1. If They Can Cook, So Can You

Love cooking? Or just want to avoid going out when it is crowded, such as during “peak hours” i.e. mealtimes? Why not take it to the kitchen to try out some new recipes?

You’d also want to check out these videos where AIC collaborated with celebrity chefs and challenged them to produce some home cooking recipe videos using simple and common everyday ingredients.

2. Keep On Moving

One big challenge of staying home is that you run the risk of being inactive. The Health Promotion Board recommends that people should do 150 minutes of exercise every week to stay in good shape physically and mentally. Not sure how to accomplish this at home? We’ve rounded up our popular Age Active fitness tips here, along with simple routines that don’t require equipment! These are also suitable for people with limited mobility.

If it is your first time doing these routines, start slow. Make sure a family member is around to supervise you, and help you if need be.

3. Find Your Inner Zen

We’ve talked about nourishing your body with healthy food and exercise, but don’t forget to also take care of your mental health.

The stress of this continuous pandemic can make it hard for us to cope and adapt to the changes. Mask-wearing, carrying hand sanitiser everywhere and tracking infection cases daily have taken their toll on some of us.

During such times of upheaval, Mindfulness practice can help us stay grounded by focusing on the present. Many studies have shown health benefits to practising deep breathing exercises daily.

Brahm Centre, which conducts mindfulness workshops, has several valuable resources on its website that can help you practise mindfulness at home.

4. Silent Disco With Classic Tunes

For seniors who missed their younger days of visiting discotheques or listening to pop tunes, why not hold a silent disco in the comfort and safety of home?

Silent discos are a fun activity where you put on headphones and play your favourite music to dance to. It’s perfect for people living in dense housing like HDB flats, as there is no noise pollution (unless you start singing out loud!).

Not sure what songs to play for your senior loved one? Why not check out our collections of songs on Spotify, covering songs from the 50s, 60s, 70s, and 80s?
