We’ve prepared a variety—from game-like activities to ones that really make you think.

We’ll update the recommended brain-training challenges daily, so keep your mind active and enjoy even better days!

This is a rehabilitation tool that uses a whiteboard and colored magnets, which you can easily get even at 100-yen shops.

Draw lines on the whiteboard and then place magnets at the intersections—simple, right? By removing magnets that are stuck on and arranging them neatly while paying attention to color, you train the ability to judge colors and order as well as fine finger movements.

Try customizing it depending on what you want to strengthen: for example, increase the number of magnets to make the arranging take more time, or use stronger magnets to require more force to remove them.

Hiragana characters are arranged within a 5-by-5 grid.

From this grid, try to find words that are names of foods.

It’s simple, but actually quite challenging.

Even characters you could find if you stay calm and take your time can suddenly become hard to spot if you set a time limit.

When creating problems, it’s good to prepare multiple answers rather than limiting it to just one.

In senior facilities, having participants create puzzles for each other and swap them not only fosters interaction but also doubles the brain-training effect.

Give it a try!

In conclusion
