Back in Our Day
A large print coloring book for seniors, full of everyday moments from the 1950s and 60s: the milkman at the door, the soda fountain, family road trips in the station wagon. Each of the 45 pages comes with a simple question like “What did you order at the soda fountain?”, so coloring easily turns into storytelling. A warm gift for grandparents, and a good fit for memory care activities.
Free pages: the milkman, the soda fountain, the drive-in
