Word Play
Session Brief
Research shows that most English speaking adults have a 20 to 35 thousand word vocabulary, and that word puzzles can be part of a healthy lifestyle. With our games master Deborah we play online word games like Boggle and Hangman and work as a group to solve puzzles and riddles and get our brains working! This really is a mini brain workout for people who enjoy the likes of Countdown and Brain Training games/exercises. Suitable for all levels from beginner to expert, it's a great session to take part in on a Saturday morning!
If A is a success in life, then A equals x plus y plus z. Work is x; y is play; and z is keeping your mouth shut.
- Albert Einstein
