Use that brain
You know the old saying, "Use it or lose it." It definitely applies to our brain, as well, and not just our muscles (it's been proven). Using the brain can even help prevent dementia in seniors!
So, if you feel that your brain isn't getting the exercise it needs amidst all the routine housework, kids schoolwork, holiday preparations, and just life, bookmark the following link list.
Then, every day go to one of the sites on the list, and do one puzzle, riddle, or whatever it might be. There are plenty of sites on the list to keep you busy for a while. It says "50 games" but some of the links go to sites full of games:
50 Fun, Free Web Games to Make Your Brain Smarter, Faster, Sharper
For example, promise yourself to have some brain gym time just before or after you finish reading your favorite blogs or news sites or check email in the morning. It should work!
