Brain Games: Large Print Crossword Puzzles

This book is Fun

I have had lots of fun doing the various games in this challenging, yet fun book. The puzzles in this book range from easy to quite challenging and include math and word puzzles. It has games I have never heard of before and I love to do. One of them is Calcu-Sudoku which requires me to do math problems to eliminate numbers for the puzzle. There are also traditional crossword puzzles and untraditional crossword puzzles. Some crossword puzzles can be solves without clues! The other night I stayed up pretty late because I could not put the book down.

BRAIN GAMES PICTURE PUZZLES

The first Brain Games Picture Puzzles I received as a Christmas gift
Christmas 2009. It turned out to be the best Christmas gift. I took
the book with me in January on a flight to Florida. Then in February,
I was fortunate to take a trip to California. I again took the book.
It is fun to do, and mind active. A great alternative to reading.
Since then, I have purchased three more of this book. This is fun
to do when patiently waiting for anything!!

Great book for group fun

This book is great for testing your brain, or for a group to test each other. There are games and brain teasers for kids and adults at several different levels. There are some basic items in the book (like What does not belong in this picture or locate a list of items in a picture) that allow children 5 and up to participate. There are several visual puzzles that allow you to check the vision on someone you suspect might have a depth perception problem. I use this book in the classroom. When we are done with the lesson but there is still time in the class, I get the book out and test the kids. They think it is great fun and they try to see who can come up with the answer first. I recommend this book for teachers and for family fun. If you are someone who likes to challenge yourself, the advanced puzzles will appeal to you as well.

Great for your Brain

I have only made it thru level one puzzel, but looking forward to working my brain harder. I got it for Christmas and Its been a lot of fun!

Great For Sports Fans

My husband loves puzzle games like Suduko and brain teasers and loves baseball add these two together and he is in heaven! It combines 2 great past times and putting your knowledge to the test!

Great for beginners!

I bought this for my 7 1/2 year old son who kept stealing my sudoku book after I taught him one day how to do it. We were waiting for someone and I pulled out my book, which I had just bought and learned to do and he asked me how to do it. So, I explained the rules and he did one with me. After that, he was hooked and wanted to do more. So I found a good starter book for him and the rest is history! He has great level 1's in it for a beginner and it goes up to level 3, although that still has quite a few starter numbers also.

Fun book

This book is perfect for the person that enjoys playing soduko. I love the spiral notebook style because it allows the book to lay flat. The book starts out very easy so it makes the games fast. I play this game when watching television. There are over two hundred games to keep you busy in your spare time. I have also given this book as a gift. Even if they have never played this game it is a good book to start with because it starts out so very easy. Have fun playing this game. It keeps your brain young and spry which is very important when growing older.

A great activity book for all ages

There is lots of fun to be found in this "spot the differences" puzzle book. I use it to keep my boys occupied while we wait for appointments and to keep them busy when we fly. This is an enjoyable activity book and I highly recommend it.

WORD SEARCH

I LOVE THIS BOOK! I PICK UP MY KIDS EVERYDAY FROM SCHOOL. I KEEP IT IN MY CAR SO THAT I HAVE SOMETHING FUN TO DO WHILE I WAIT FOR THEM TO GET OUT. THE PUZZLES ALTERNATE BETWEEN BASIC ONES TO ONES THAT ONCE YOU FIND ALL THE WORDS YOU PUT TOGETHER THE LEFTOVER LETTERS TO FIND A HIDDEN ANSWER. I ALSO LIKE HOW IT HAS A NOTEBOOK STYLE BINDING SO IT LAYS FLAT AND I CAN HOOK MY PEN ON IT.

Entertaining little book

I bought this book to help occupy some airport/travel time. It did the trick - my husband (who is not into games at all) even did a few of the puzzles. Well worth the couple of dollars I spent on it.

Brain Games was a good mixture.

I liked the games that were in the book. They ranged from easy to hard and there was a good mixture of puzzles. I liked some better than others but over all it was a good mixture. I liked the bargin price that made this a good buy. As a matter of fact I liked it enought that I went back and purchased the other Brain Games book for a friend. If you enjoy different puzzles that don't take a ton of time to do and like the variety then this book is a good buy.

Food for the Brain

I keep this book in my car; when I need something to fill the time--waiting for my daughter after practice, etc. I pull it out and do some of the puzzles. I like the variety this book offers. Some games are easy and some are very difficult. I like the challenge. I also like to use some of the games and puzzles in my classroom with my students.

Brain Puzzling

I gave this to my husband as a gift and he could not put it down. I took a look and went back to my computer games and let him have it.

Can't put it down!!

Love this book. There are so many different types of puzzles that it really works your brain. I liked it so much I bought two more (same book - different types of puzzles) for my older children. They also could not put theirs down. These books are well worth it!

Fun

I enjoy puzzling of all sorts and enjoyed Brain Games for its diversification.

Brain games

This book is pretty great to carry around. Its not too big and its spiral bound so its easy to lay it flat. If you've ever played the any type of brain game on your phone or game system this is basically the same. Every book goes from an easy level to progressively harder and each level includes the same kind of puzzles. It also has the answers at the end.

Great Fun

I just love my picture puzzle book. It's a great way to stimulate the brain and have fun at the same time. My ten year old granddaughter was also fascinated by it and I purchased one of the books for her also. Sometimes we do the search together. Now that's great fun for grandma.

Brain Teasers

Well, I found it amazing. At times complicated, but gets your mind going. I like it. Expecially necessary for long durations like a flight or long drives (if your not driving). ^_^

This kind of thing is critical for your brain

I bought one of these for my wife and one for me. I research in this area, and this book includes some of the best work for keeping your brain sharp, young or old. It's even more critical to do this as you age, and doing this kind of variety, where you are forced to learn new rules for fairly complex games, is the best way to develop and maintain mental agility. Especially after your 30s, when brain cells are dying more quickly every day, this agility can help you be smarter with fewer brain cells.

Picture Puzzle series

If you are a person of puzzles, I mean any kind of a puzzle you should try picture puzzle. I am so addicted to this kinda puzzles that I even bought a value pack of them the other day. You enjoy being challenged and your eyes become sharper. It is best if you are a very detailed oriented person, you will love this puzzle.
