Sudoku has become a favorite pastime among older adults—and for good reason. Studies suggest that brain-stimulating activities like puzzles can support cognitive health as we age.
Here’s why Sudoku is especially beneficial for seniors:
1. Keeps the Mind Active
Solving Sudoku stimulates memory, logic, and focus—areas of the brain that naturally decline with age.
2. Reduces Stress
The calming nature of Sudoku provides a peaceful break from daily worries, promoting mental relaxation.
3. Improves Confidence
Each completed puzzle gives a sense of accomplishment, boosting motivation and emotional well-being.
4. Easy to Start
