September 2, 2009 //

Research says that you may be able to reduce your risk of developing Alzheimer’s disease by keeping your brain active. This means being social and challenging your mind with puzzles and other tasks. Together with Time Inc. Entertainment Publishing, the Alzheimer’s Association is pleased to present The Big Brain Puzzle Book. Proceeds of its sale will benefit the Alzheimer’s Association. The book includes 200 puzzles, such as:

Frame Games: Find an every day phrase hidden inside words or drawings of rebus puzzles.
Spatial Visual: Answer questions while looking at 3-dimensional objects on a 2 dimensional page.
Squeezers: Fill in the blanks with letters in the middle of two words creating two 2-syllable words.
Word Search: Find words within blocks of letters going horizontally, diagonally or vertically.
Trivia: Answer questions to seemingly obvious questions and learn something new in the process.
Trickledowns: In five steps, changing one letter at a time, come up with a whole new word.
