Things
have changed so much in our world that a simple game of cards is becoming a
thing of the past. With the introduction of hand-held video games and computer
software, picking up a deck of cards and sitting a table is quickly becoming a
lost art.
Playing
cards is a fun and easy way to socialize. It also can be competitive and it has
another benefit that one might not notice at first glance. Playing cards are
wonderful way to exercise your mind and boost your memory.
There
are so many card games that are fun and easy. A few examples are:
- Poker
- Rumm
- Go Fish
- Bridge
- Hearts
Each
is a bit different and many involve using your memory to get ahead in the game.
Some games involve watching the cards closely and recognizing which cards have
already been dealt and played. With a strong memory to work with you can almost
guarantee that you we will have an advantage over the players whose memory is
not at the same top notch level as yours. This can translate into a more
challenging and rewarding game.
If
you find yourself with a deck of cards and no opponents, a game of solitaire
can offer the same memory boosting advantages as a rousing game of poker. Many
games of solitaire involve close concentration and using your memory. Practice
is said to make perfect and with solitaire which is very true. By developing
concentration and memory skills you can beat the cards more than they beat you.
If
you feel your memory slipping, picking up a deck of cards and dealing them out
can help shift that memory back to where it needs to be. It is also a great way
to strength concentration skills.
