really simple app games?

I work in a nursing home and most of the residents have physical disabilities and many have dementia but I was thinking a larger tablet might make an awesome addition to our activities but I'm struggling with ideas,

I would b very grateful

P.s I know about word games etc but I mean simple

I'm not too knowledgeable on tablets but what about one of the ones aimed at younger children that have educational games and stuff that I imagine would be fairly easy? & also they would probably be learning based too which would be good for helping keeping minds active.

I'd say keep it super-simple, with what they might recognise. Angry Birds is a great game but would totally blow your mind if you're not used to computers, let along angry birds flying through space to reclaim their eggs from bad piggies.

Simple shape/word games would be good - what about, as above poster suggested, school-aimed games, with very basic interaction?
