Creative Fall Prevention Education Display


I need to make a fall prevention board for a seminar that outlines our fall prevention measures. I was considering a tri fold board with a man falling down (his feet at the top and his body curving down to the table. But I dont know the best way to do this that is cost effective. I was considering making his limbs out of construction paper crinkled. I've seen dummies made for boards like his before. It makes them kinda bouncy. I dunno. I was gonna put the fall socks on his feet and fall wrist band on him. Any suggestions are welcome.

Thanks

I was thinking something like take those plastic eggs that the pantyhose come in, paint them like humpty dumpty. (he is pretty simple) with some paper cut out legs/arms. have one sitting on the wall, and maybe a few more "cracked" open under the poster board set up. Some of your falls bracelets on the poster, and with a catchy saying like "Falls prevention is no Yoke!"
