  1. This sounds like a fantastic idea! I know my grandma and grandpa would love an activity like this. They both really enjoyed dancing when they were younger. They just don't have as many opportunities now. Thiago | http://www.reccare.com/

  2. I think there should be times where even seniors should feel young again. It is an amazing experience for them to have and be reminded of those good times. This is something even I would want to plan as well for the seniors in my community. http://www.homehealthcarejenkintown.com/
