There are numerous activities to keep your brain stimulated, my top ones are: Sudoku, reading in all kinds of genres, writing limericks, Zumba ( learning new dance steps ), trying out new recipes, playing Mexican Train ( dominos ), playing card game Quiddler, crocheting, making bookmark/ friendship bracelets out of embroidery floss, socializing and exercising.
How do you stimulate your brain?
@Rhymesometimes I love doing crossword puzzles every day, playing strategic card games, reading, great discussions and debates with friends and family, watching my favorite late night shows on CNN, and problem solving. Oh, and listening to great music that makes me remember the best times in my life.
@postman29 Those are terrific ideas. What type of strategic card games do you play?
@Rhymesometimes I like playing poker, cribbage, and 45's. Playing partners in both cribbage and 45's is a blast. A lot of strategy involved.🤔
@postman29 Thanks for more game ideas. Always looking for something different to play.
@Rhymesometimes I do <logic> puzzles. Lol, hopefully my brain is being <stimulated>!!! 😂🤣
