Older people have bonded well with college students in the colouring session - beneficial to them
. It strengthens their hand - eye cordination, grip control and helps to mantain sensor skills. 👇🏾

Older people enjoy playing a popular cultural board game known by different names in different parts of África for example; Oware in Ghana, Ayo in Nigeria, Omweso in Uganda and Warri in the Caribbean. It improves older people's focus😊👏🏾
