I enjoy the Quizzes as I always learn a lot from them. I also like 5 Things you Need to Know this Week.

I like to start my day by doing crosswords and such to kick-start my brain

I enjoy the AARP Staying Sharp series and challenges that are offered, especially the most recent - Sleep Diary - plus the exercise and wellness sections. The most fun one was caregiving, Zumba To The Rhythm. Got to do this one every Thursday.

Love the quizzes and videos on various subjects. Learned a lot from those.

I enjoy the self-health columns and best of all, I like learning about ways to make my life healthier and more enjoyable. We all need to exercise daily and continue learning to have an enjoyable life.

i enjoy the podcast, the new scram that are going round and weekly quizzes. I learn how to use my cell phone better and it has help with health issues.

[DianeB399052]

New to discovering all the great things AARP has to over. I started playing games through the APP & earning points. Will research more ways to earn points & purchase gift cards.

The focus on what SELF CARE really means. It's so much more than a massage every couple of weeks. AARP continues to broaden the self care definition for us offering wisdom from OTC products that could cause issues for us. 
vacations are always fun to plan. Taking a long train trip has been on both of our bucket lists. AARP members not only get a discount, but exploring various routes in this issue helped us hone in on trips we will want to check out. And we can take our doggo. Even better

I always look forward to learning something new nearly every day. Expanding one's knowledge is always a good thing even for simple things.

AARP has been important for me. My mother taught me about AARP when she was alive. She subscribed to the magazines and attended AARP meetings in her town. She was a good example and I followed her footsteps. I am happily retired and feel secure. I enjoy the test and the cognitive assessments offered by AARP. I am grateful. Sheila

I enjoy earning rewards taking the rewards quizzes.   Taking the quizzes keeps my mind active and let's me increase my knowledge in a rewarding way.

[sassysuecross]

AARP offers me challenges that I so need to keep my brain going with Lyme Disease. I make sure I don't run out of points to use while trying to keep busy having fun while keeping me GOING and GROWING.

[Yayaerie]

I love visiting the AARP site daily to earn rewards, play games with my favorite being Trivia, cashing in rewards, watching videos, checking out on line activities - and just about everything under the sun! Thanks AARP for keeping me young-and interested!

[RhondaP760227]

     I have been an "unpaid" caregiver since December 2015 and the prospect of trying to rejoin the workforce with such a large resume gap is daunting, to say the least.  I pop in periodically to check out the latest articles, videos, advice, etc. pertinent to my situation and have copied links for later reference.  The free courses will prove especially useful, as I expect my household income to completely disappear within a few months.  It helps to know that I'm not the first person to face such a challenge, nor will I be the last, and that there are resources available if you know where to look.

[ChristyR37679]

i love AARP word wipe ! I play as often as I can and introduced a few family members to it as well keeps my mind active , teaches me a few new words as well .. @AARPTeri 

[s557993p]

I learn many new hints by watching the AARP videos.

[stuberk625]

I’m not sure what to say.

[apryl5151]

 All the healthy topics and tips in AARP Rewards are great!

[DeborahP634376]

I love to play Word Wipe! It is a great game to play on my phone, and I always get through many levels...

[RalphP894551]

I love to play the AARP mini crossword! Keeps my mind active

There are so many help hint, fun things to do and ways to save. Everyday I find something new. I appreciate the variety of offers and experiences.

[Summer2025]

I love my daily routine exercise and meditation videos (especially Lorraine C. Ladish and Bryant Johnson (our late Lady Justice RBG's personal trainer). Also some of Denise's short videos exercise training.

I have lately been less inspired with lack of useful (to me) gift cards for points only; the Walmart and Amazon points only gift cards supplemented my limited budget very much, so with none offered recently, a little miffed... just mho.

[BJHillcal]

There truly is something for everybody in the AARP list of earning rewards activities.  I enjoy the videos on cooking new things -- they are short but useful introductions to new foods and recipes.  I also enjoy the quizzes (though some of these are getting outdated and need to be revamped -- have to answer based on what was true a few years ago, not in terms of what is true today).

[mcadookelley109]

I've learn to manage my blood pressure through breathing exercises and to get a better night's sleep 

those two things are beneficial alone ... I've learned so much and I will continue ! Thanks AARP .

[11Ahnlunds]

AARP has a treasure trove of information and activities....if I spent as much time exercising, socializing, shopping and cooking healthy meals as I do online.....I's be a buff senior.  I keep learning and trying to improve my (and my husband's) aging journey through AARP !!  Much appreciated !!

[bm36614457]

I enjoy AARP.  I daily login, take the quizzes, read the articles, play the games, etc.  I recently read the article about volunteering to read to children Grade 3 and below.  I could not attend the online training.  I called and wrote AARP multiple times.  I could not get any answers or help.  This was disappointing.  

[lenniehofmann]

I am so grateful for the articles warning me about the latest scams and how to protect myself.

[KimberlyH227324]

I readily read articles from AARP. I enjoy their updates and learn quite a bit! I also enjoy the games, quizzes and videos. They are all helpful and have useful information. I didn't think about becoming an AARP member as I got older but I am sure glad I am! It is now something I do everyday and I gain a lot of knowledge from being a member. Thank you!

[CarolE171109]

Every morning I read all of my newsletters, participate in any of the quizzes available and then it is on to the word and trivia games.  I find doing crosswords keep my mind going and increase my vocabulary. I then use the points I earn to enter sweepstakes. I haven't won yet but I keep hoping!!
