​

Try puzzles, at home or as a group. Working on puzzles can be a great way to boost memory and cognition while also engaging in social skills. Whether you join a puzzle group at a local church, enjoy putting puzzles together with friends at local free events for seniors, or simply want to work on puzzles with a loved one at home, completing puzzles is the perfect way to unwind while also giving your mind a challenge.

​

Check out old home movies. Whether you're together as a group or on your own, watching old home movies can be a fun way to reminisce and bond over memories of the past. When you watch home movies with loved ones, you get to relive fun memories together, and may be inspired to continue creating new memories.

​

Try something new. When you try a new skill, you're creating new pathways in your brain that can help you in other areas of your life as well. Think about skills that you've always wanted to learn, and remember that there's no time like the present to check out our free community calendar online. Whether you'd like to sign up for an art class for the first time, check out an exercise class, or learn a new method of fishing, learning something new can be a fun way to socialize with others and get some valuable new skills.

​

Cook a new meal. It can be easy to rely on convenience foods to make it through the week, and cooking a new meal can be a fun experience that allows you to give your nutrition a boost while learning something new. Whether you choose to look up a new recipe online or decide to dust off some old cookbooks to search out a new favorite, cooking something new is a fun way to bond with others. Invite your relatives or friends over to join you as you cook, and let them get their hands dirty too. You can go to the grocery store together, prepare the meal, and enjoy dinner as a group. If you want to take it to the next level, think about signing up for a cooking class. Learning from a professional chef is a fun way to boost your skills and meet new people.
