Brain teasers never go out of style — and never get old. If you’re looking for something to do this weekend when hanging out with friends, try these exercises for working memory from Harriett Vines, Ph.D. retired college professor.
Exercises for Working Memory
3. Find the sum of your date of birth, mm/dd/yyyy. Want more exercise? Do the same with friends’ and relatives’ date of birth.
4. Name two objects for every letter in your complete name. Work up to five objects, trying to use different items each time.
5. Wherever you are, look around and within two minutes, try to find 5 red things that will fit in your pocket, and 5 blue objects that are too big to fit.
For #1 and #2 on the list, go here.
Challenge your friends to a little friendly competition using these exercises for working memory. Share this post as well.
