Adults Arts and Crafts

In today’s chaotic world finding time for some relaxation and tranquillity can be a challenge. However, every so often it is important to take a step away from the hustle and bustle and activate that creative side. 

The importance of arts and crafts, art therapy and board games - particularly for older demographics - is increasing. That is why we have introduced a variety of products to address this such as our adult colouring books, activities for dementia patients, art supplies, art therapy activities, games for elderly and many more. So if you are unsure about where to begin, you’ve come to the right place!

In recent times adult colouring books have surged in popularity and rightfully so, they carry many benefits! 

Amongst many relaxing activities, adult colouring books provide a stress relief like no other through its incredibly calming effect on the mind. Many may not realise but this can often increase mindfulness and focus while boosting creativity. In addition, adult colouring books have been seen to provide a verbal and non-verbal form of expression, encourage feelings of mental clarity and promote a sense of accomplishment. Not to mention, they are quite affordable and cost effective!

Art Therapy Activities

For those unfamiliar with the term ‘art therapy’, it is a common practice that combines the process of art with psychotherapy and offers an array of benefits from a mental health, emotional support and physical wellbeing perspective. However, art therapy can become expensive, so to provide a cost effective option we have stocked up on a variety of art supplies. 

The Benefits of Art Therapy

There are many benefits of art therapy particularly for older demographics, let us talk you through them!

  • Art therapy activities for adults can provide a form of emotional release and expression in a safe and non-verbal way. It is an enjoyable way to allow those who may not feel like communicating verbally to express what they are feeling!
  • Art therapy has been used to support individuals experiencing feelings of anxiety and depression and there are even specialised forms of art therapy for anxiety and art therapy for depression.
  • Through self expression art therapy has been seen to enhance one’s sense of self awareness.
  • Art therapy has also been shown to boost self esteem and confidence whilst enhancing one's communication and problem solving skills.
  • From a physical perspective, one of the many benefits of art therapy is that it can support individuals going through rehabilitation as it encourages an alternative form of emotional expression. 
  • Art therapy also holds many cognitive benefits as it can improve attention to detail, memory and concentration.
