has he any old photos? if so, then he may be interested in scrapbooking. an old fashioned term and I prefer the term 'memory booking'. all he needs is old photos and/or memorabilia, a pair of scissors some glue sticks or glue runners and maybe some ebellishments - and a nice blank scrapbook. no effort required!
Tinksy - your mum may enjoy this too - ask her to look out photos of family members you dont know and make a scrapbook with their names and any interesting titbits about them written underneath!0 -
