I have done this with true or false I put T on one side and F on the other side of a tongue depressor to save the confusion of two sticks. It worked really well.
i have also done the lollipops idea and used heads or tails game just by tossing a coin and asking the players to guess if it will be heads or tails. On the lollipop i found pictures of characters faces and animals with their long tails showing . For those who have a competitive streak if they get it right they can get a token/bottle top winner has the most at the end) For those residents who are able you can ask them to take a turn in trying to toss the coins .
I want to try some true/false quizzes when I start my new job. I was also thing of making some true/false posters for the wall to try and make a simple walking quiz so they'd walk to the answer to try and encourage movement/work on preventing falls.

Golden Carers is a wonderful resource. I really like the idea that more of it is going to be in video format as this grabs my participant's attention! Even after 20 years in the activity director role, the ideas in Golden Carers are often refreshingly innovative and really useful, even on the fly. Your help is invaluable! Many thanks!
