National Train Your Brain Day is created to challenge our mental ability and capacity with puzzling games, riddles, and brain busters. Put your brain to work on the treadmill by playing word games, solving maths riddles on your own or in teams. Improving your thinking power is important. Expand your brain's capacity by learning new cognitive skills. Word puzzles, brain teasers and crossword puzzles improve cognition and challenge different parts of our brain that we don't get to use every day. By learning new skills, we expand our problem-solving capabilities. Creativity sparks the imagination and our brains grow in terms of potential capacity. Share your favorite brainteasers on social media with #NationalTrainYourBrainDay.

Mental gymnastics. Brain games. Puzzle power. National Train Your Brain Day was created on October 13th to encourage everyone to expand and exercise their brain to use more of its potential capacity.

We can't pinpoint the exact origins of National Train Your Brain Day, but we'll update this day as soon as we do.
