A puzzle a day,
brain workout by play,
stimulation
– shared challenge for two?
competition,
co-operation?
communication
– when one succeeds,
he/she may choose
to think of clues
which may confuse,
amuse,
or be the trigger
that helps the other
to figure
it out.

Hi Rhiannon,

I'm not much for puzzles, but me and my partner just love playing scrabble, it not only helps with finding new words but also helps me with my adding up, which I do have problems with unless I have my calculator.

I think we could all do with some help and I must admit puzzles are amazing at keeping the brain alive. Like Jack said whatever keeps you sweet, I like that expression.

You got me thinking though. wink

Jenny.

Thaks, Jenny. One of those blocks of puzzles is Scrabble based. I like Scrabble, but my husband seems much sharper than I over it, and once he managed to get rid of all the tiles on his board twice in a game, which sent his score soaring. With the puzzles, usually he gets them first, but not always, so we can have fun over them. I quite like the ones just making words out of the 9 letters and see who gets the biggest. We have fun with giving each other clues, it's almost like a puzzle in itself, and he often finds clues he thinks will help me don't, and clues he thinks will be no help make me jump to the answer straight away!

I think it shows we all have different strengths and different types of abilities when it comes to doing things whether it's puzzles or writing or cooking or …

Seeing these calendar blocks made me think of the inspiration point, and that those  blocks represented a whole new year of daily puzzles!

regards, Rhiannon
