I agree with MJA, put it in the children's hands and see how they mold it. I met a lady in early Alzheimer yesterday at a store I work in, she reminded me of a little girl. Instead of signing her name in cursive, she wrote it out and said out loud, "I have to remember the 2 n's in my name". She was so sweet, I wished I could be her caregiver. Then when she left she said really loud, "See you next year! lol"
Or you could volunteer some time at an Alzheimer home and get some suggestions from them since they are childlike also. I wouldn't use any form of a preconceived idea, i.e. Einstein, only because that is going to pollute your mind as well. You might even get some Einstein concepts out of them but easier to understand.
