There are many perks associated with getting older. Now that you are no longer working and your children are grown, you finally have time to do what you have always wanted to do. You can pick up a new hobby, or spend time doing things you love. And a great idea is to start travelling!

At this stage of life, you already have gathered a wealth of experiences. But the world is a sea of adventures and travelling is the door to such experiences. Travel with your partner and expand your worldview in your golden years. While you travel, you can enjoy doing a host of great activities. Below are some activities that senior citizens can enjoy on their holiday.

Holiday Activities for Senior Citizens

Go Dancing: Dancing benefits senior citizens in more than one way. It is good for your heart and joints. Dancing increases your mental alertness, which in turn lowers the odds for developing dementia. The activity forces you to memorise dance steps and moves apart from it being a great physical exercise.

Go Swimming: Swimming and water aerobics are fantastic ways to exercise with other people at the resort. Water exercises are the best when you have arthritis as your joints remain free during swimming.

Play Games Together: Find out if your partner has a history of game playing. Find a game they’ll enjoy at the resort you are staying and play it over. Board games are an ideal way to bond with others. Games that can stimulate mental health and that seniors enjoy are Housie and Scrabble. Even card games are popular with seniors. Trivia night is an excellent mental activity that also promotes socialising.

Attend a Concert or Play: Concerts and plays are always cool. Catch a local show or enjoy live holiday music at your destination for an incredible holiday experience.

Create Hand-made Ornaments: There are so many workshops out there at the holiday resorts. Pick the one creative workshop you like, have ornament-making fun with your partner and bring home hand-made souvenirs.

Play Digital Games: While puzzles and board games provide social fun, you can up the notch with playing digital games. They have proven to be having the most significant impact on senior wellbeing. They have benefits like lower rates of depression, better social functioning, and improved wellbeing.

Bollywood Movie Night: In the night, the weather outside might be frightful. In such times, have holiday movies that are delightful. Watch new heartwarming movies or rewatch the movies of your time along with your partner. Feel what you felt when you watched them for the first time. Spend some alone time with your loved one on your lovely holiday.

These and many other activities for senior citizens are waiting for you at your Club Mahindra holiday destination. You may find out something completely new and unique to do on your vacation. Keep an open mind and an open heart as you create new memories.
