Children love to play. It’s how they learn. Creating block towers teaches spatial reasoning and motor skills. Playing Crazy Eights and Monopoly help develop logical reasoning abilities. Adults need to play too but don’t seem to get enough of it. Our brains are stimulated by the unique challenges and problems that games and brain teasers offer.
Research is finally demonstrating that our brains do better in the long term if they are exposed to novel activities including brain teasers, brain games and logic puzzles. Publishers seem to get that point too, that it’s always a good time for a puzzle.

Remember that variety is important to maximize the benefit you get from working logic puzzles. Just don't focus on crosswords or Sudoku. Instead change up your brain workout by trying a variety of brain teasers. Even if you can’t solve a puzzle your brain will still receive an excellent and much-needed workout.
