Folk Art Craft

Arts and crafts?
Does anyone know of any good ideas for arts and crafts for the elderly or for folks in a nursing home? Is there any good sites out there I can go on to get ideas as well?
Hancocks has a free projects page and a free book available in stores, called working with fleece. They can make scarfs and hats with little to no sewing. Also they have new sew felt craft projects. Joanns and Michaels also have free projects online. Check it out you probably should look in the sections for you kids. Most elderly have arthritis so check for something from easy to moderate. If you group is limber and interested make a quilt or knit pot holders. Crochet is good. For the guys acrylic paint projects could be done with wood and/or plaster of paris.
