Creating Joyful Moments for seniors: Social Activities at Our Assisted Living Home in Kirkland, WA

When seniors move into our private assisted living home in Kirkland, it’s not just about receiving care, it’s about living a life filled with connection, joy, and purpose. At Caring Arms Adult Family Homes, we believe that meaningful social engagement is just as essential as physical well-being. That’s why we create opportunities for our residents to connect, laugh, and participate in enriching experiences every single day.

Why Activities Matter in Assisted Living

For older adults, staying socially active can help reduce feelings of isolation, improve cognitive health, and boost overall happiness. In a small, home-like setting like ours with only six residents social interaction becomes more personal, more impactful, and more heartwarming.

Each resident is part of our family, and our activities are thoughtfully designed to reflect that.

Daily and Weekly Activities That Make a Difference

Here’s a list of some of the common social activities you can get to enjoy at our assisted living home. Many of which are standard across senior care homes in the U.S., but delivered with a personal, home-like touch.

  • Birthday Celebrations – We celebrate each resident with their favorite dessert, decorations, and heartfelt moments shared with fellow residents and caregivers.
  • Card Games & Board Games – From Bingo to Rummy, game time is always filled with laughter and friendly competition.
  • Movie Nights – Residents gather in the cozy living area for classic favorites or light-hearted comedies.
  • Baking & Cooking Activities – Some days, we make cookies together; other days, we try a resident’s favorite family recipe.
  • Arts & Crafts – Painting, coloring, seasonal décor, and creative sessions offer both joy and therapeutic value.
  • Music & Sing-Alongs – Music brings back beautiful memories and we often play residents’ favorite tunes or host casual sing-alongs.
  • Gardening – Residents can help tend to small indoor or outdoor plants, bringing fresh air and light movement into their day.
  • Group Outings – Local parks, coffee shops, scenic drives, and community events in and around Kirkland are all part of life outside the home.
  • Light Exercise & Chair Yoga – Gentle movement supports mobility and brings energy to the day.
  • Reminiscence Activities – Storytelling and memory-sharing sessions help build bonds and honor each resident’s journey.
  • Spiritual Gatherings – We honor personal faith practices with quiet time, readings, or local clergy visits when requested.

In our assisted living community, these aren’t just scheduled events, they become cherished rituals that bring purpose and routine to each day.

See what families write about us.

Caring Arms has been a life saver for my family and me. I cannot express how wonderful they have been for my Dad. We tried a bigger place, but it didn’t work and he needed a place more like a home. Caring Arms only has up to six adults at one time, so they take such great care of everyone. The food is home cooked and it’s always so clean. My Dad loves them so much there. Thank you for taking such good care of him when we couldn’t
