The Best Brain Games!

Posted on July 26, 2023July 24, 2023 by LifeByWyetha

It’s mid-week Wednesday!

What’s up, everyone, and how are you this Wednesday?  Are you doing well? Living in the present and not just existing? Taking care of your body and your mind? Getting rest and staying hydrated?  I hope the answer is yes to at least two of those.

No doubt that people have more time during the Summer with no school or activities and nothing on TV. Immersing yourself in a book is a great distraction, but why not give your brain something else to do as well?

Brain games, as we know, are anything that helps stimulate your brain, but these games can also improve your cognitive memory, problem-solving, and critical thinking, as well as improve your response time, attention span, and logic skills. Just a few hours a week can have a lasting effect on your overall well-being.


In some studies, brain games can reduce the risk of Dementia and Alzheimer’s.  Games are a beautiful distraction, and just 15 minutes a day can make all the difference.  Here are a few apps that I’ve found.

Word Search Apps

Easybrain Word Search – Crossword
Word Search Pro

Jigsaw Puzzle Apps

Magic Jigsaw Puzzles
Jigsawscapes

These apps are also available for your Android phone via Google Play.

Quizzes

Also, check out YouTube quizzes on any and every subject just by searching for your favorites.  Quizzes are usually about 15 minutes or less, range from 15-20 questions, and can be played alone or with a group.

My friends, these are just a few games because there are literally thousands.  Turn your beach read or downtime into a brain game and make it a weekly habit.  It’s so important not just to take care of the body inside and out but your mind as well.

I hope I’ve given you some beautiful distractions today.  Don’t forget to subscribe and like this post.  I hope you have a fantastic productive week. — Pease
