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.
