Tip of the month: twiddling your thumbs is good brain exercise, as long as you also twiddle each pair of fingers, backwards and forwards, in turn. Physical exercise like gardening is also good for the brain -see Garden Team below.
Elspeth Maconachie Despite the winter lull we had ample brain cells to conquer visual, numeric and word challenges. We will be interested to hear more of the book Rae is reading about memory in various cultures, especially those with oral traditions.

About Brain Games
It is well established that new skills can help build brain pathways with benefits for memory, confidence, happiness and even falls prevention. Brain Games offers a variety of entertaining and informative ways to challenge, inform and exercise your brain. Thus we might solve word, number, shape, picture or logic puzzles, take part in a quiz, brainstorm solutions to a dilemma, draw a picture or maybe even learn to juggle! We may, at times, read or view material on topics such as dementia, brain repair...etc), gender differences, optimism and pessimism, lateral thinking and creativity.
