These riddle games are quiet fun with my senior patients; however, this one my patients did not like as the original riddle states "It starts with P and ends with E," so my patients just eliminated all the words that began with the letter "P" and words that did not end with the letter "E" right off the bat and that left them with six words and they solved it in two minutes. I turned it into a dual session where we reminisced about the post office and how we rarely write actual letters these days.
Keep these Riddles coming. I used this one on St.Patrick's Day just becourse it start with a "P". I combined it with word search puzzle with clients sitting around tables engaged in a team challenge at our day centre. They enjoy working out these sort of puzzles - so keep them coming - great form of resources. Susan
