Tuesday 28th April
Poetry can be found anywhere and everywhere!
Task: If you have old magazines or newspapers lying around, cut out some words and phrases, and piece them together to make a short
poem. If you don’t want to cut anything up, scan a couple of pages of a favourite book and jot down the words that stand out to you – write a poem using all of these words. This is called “found poetry”.

The Cares Family have compiled a calendar of daily creative distractions for the month of April. We’ve added each of them to our calendar to invite you to take part. Tick your ‘daily distraction’ off the list, share it to @TheCaresFamily Twitter account and please consider donating to this wonderful charity to support their Covid-19 emergency response. They are also working to help older people stay in touch during this disconnecting time.

You can find the printable checklist for the month in our Isolation Inspiration and Information section.
