What is Today in History?

Every day is filled with history, stories, and moments that shaped our world. With Today in History, Zinnia brings those moments to life through beautiful, engaging daily videos designed specifically for Activity Directors and their residents.

Instead of reading from a paper print out, your residents will watch history unfold on screen— complete with photos and narration to spark memories and conversation.
