Jessica was a Hanny Exiner Memorial Fund Grant recipient for this project, offering weekly sessions within in an aged care setting, with both young children and elderly people. Each week’s description is richly woven with small vignettes of experiencing for both the children and the elderly. Explorations within new relationships were provided with play, touch, spontaneity, singing and dancing combined with props and art making – whilst sharing special rituals and stories. (pp 20-25)
