Rock 'n' roll began taking the airwaves and Australia by storm in the 1950s. Its strong beats and driving rhythms brought with it new dance crazes, fashions and social changes.
This kit offers a snapshot into an era that witnessed the birth of the ‘teenager’ and the music, clothes, icons and fads that became popular with this new generation. The objects, music and photographs are intended to help stimulate participants to remember this bygone era and reminisce about their experiences as teenagers growing up in post-war Australia.
This kit is specifically designed for activity coordinators to use in reminiscing sessions. It is suitable for aged care groups only.
