Australian Jason van Genderen wanted to give his mum a special surprise this Mother's Day but, because of the coronavirus lockdown, options were limited this year.<br /><br />87-year-old Hendrika has both Alzheimers and vascular dementia so van Genderen wanted to create a unique experience which would resonate with their past and also be something they could enjoy at Forrester's Beach home.<br /><br />"My parents used to always take me to the Sydney Aquarium as a child for an annual outing," van Genderen said.<br /><br />"This time we thought we'd bring the aquarium home for my elderly mum!" he added.<br /><br />The family set about lining the windows of the house with baking paper and then set up two borrowed projectors ready to beam images onto the windows. <br /><br />When Hendrika was sitting comfortably outside with a glass of bubbly, they raised the curtains revealing the outside of the house turned into a spectacular aquarium.<br /><br />The footage was shot on May 8th and 9th ahead of Australian Mother's Day on May 10th.
