***And the winners are Shaye and CBS! Congrats.***
I often feel that my brain is going to mush. I’ve tried reading Tolstoy, playing Sudoku, taking extended adult naps, brushing my teeth with my non-dominant hand and many other remedies for getting my brain in shape and improving my memory.
None of these were as much fun as playing Brainiversity, a new brain fitness game from Brighter Minds Media. Full of fun little brain stimulating activities, it gets you thinking on your feet and then tracks your progress as you complete daily quizzes.
I was excited about my progress as I continued to improve my scores from day to day. The excitement wore off JUST a titch when Laylee got on my computer to play by clicking on things randomly since she can’t read or do math and earned basically the same score as I had worked my way up to.
I’ll just chalk it up to the fact that she’s likely a child of unparalleled and even freakish genius, not that I am a moron who’s brain is in a state of rapid decay. Hopefully even if the latter is true, I’ll be able to reverse the effects by keeping up my daily brain-ercises.
If you’d like to keep your brain agile enough to help your kids with their homework, leave a comment on this post and I’ll enter you to win one of two copies of the PC-compatible version of the game. I’ll draw a winner on Wednesday at 10pm PST.
i suffer from mush brain too. i need this.
ooooh… ooohhh …pick me… pick me!! lol i have got the worst brain mush the last year. i attribute it to having had a radical hysterectomy sept 2007. i have heard that when you go through menopause, your brain kinda goes on the fritz??? andi didn’t have the luxury (if you caould call it that lol) of going through it slowly, it as kinda all of the sudden. so anyway…..pick me…..pick me! 😉
see….i can’t even type lol… i really need help!! (read my last comment)
I have four kids. With each birth, I pushed out a bit of my brain along with the baby. They say you can’t get your pre-baby body back, but maybe I could get the brain?
I hope you pick me! I can attest to the reality of Mommy Brain – and would love to be able to finish my sentances! Maybe this game would help me…maybe there is hope for us all!
I don’t have kids, but my brain has decided to go to sleep… At this rate, if I do have kids, I’m not sure if I could remember to drive them to kindergarten!
Yeah, I don’t know how that brushing your teeth with your non-dominant hand is supposed to work…cause it sure doesn’t work for me. But a fun game might!!
I think my brain still works, it just forgot to turn on. Or maybe it’s on vacation somewhere distant and possibly foreign. But I know that at one time I was actually smart…ish. Ok, smart enough, and now………….
So if I win, I’ll gladly use the program to maybe FINALLY start using my brain again by either turning it back on, finding it, or I don’t know, a full scale brain transplant? Is that part of the game?
p.s. I’m totally brushing my teeth with my non-dominant hand tonight. I wonder if that has any effect on waht kind of dreams I’ll be having…
I am old. I need this. Pick me o’ random number integer.
wait, so what about us mac people? 🙂
I suffer from the butt brain. It moves in like a fog and keeps me from remembering basic things like, wiping your mouth with a table cloth was never an acceptable way to do it.
I would like to try to sharpen my brain-power. Thanks.
Great. Another addicting time drain. Sign me up!
my brain hasn’t been the same since I got pregnant . . . . five years ago!
Oooh! I love games like this. They’re freakishly addictive, but that’s half the fun. Pick me!
I have a Mac…but I have lots of PC-using mom friends! Pick me so I can give it to a friend, and then spend a few hours lounging/improving my brain power at her house!!
I feel the brain mush at times as well. Especially on days when I only speak to people who are 6 and under. My husband walks in and I almost attack him to have an adult conversation with me! Only by the time he gets home he is tired of adult conversation and only wants to talk to the kids… It is a vicious cycle!
That looks fun!
Thanks for the chance!!
Hm, never heard of it, but it looks fun, maybe even a good christmas gift for someone…
If I went into detail about my current job, you’d think I was a junior high school cheerleading locker room attendant. I need a little more brain power in my life!
cool game
My brain needs this!
Sign me up.
Wow, sounds neat!
My job has been so boring lately that I feel like I’m losing brainpower by the minute! This game sounds really neat.
🙂 Becky
I view it as a huge accomplishment that I remembered what I was doing between the time I pushed on the “leave comment” button and the time I started typing. Seriously, I’m that forgetful these days. Pick me, pick me!
Oh – I LOVE fun things that let my brain work. 🙂
We just moved from seattle and miss the mountains so much!
I hope I win and that this can help me do Junior High math because I can not help my kids with their homework.
Better than brushing my teeth with my left hand?
Sign me up for that!
Man, could I use this. Wait, what is it again? Ha ha ha.
I just went shoe shopping for my two boys and couldn’t remember the sizes that the clerk had measured within two minutes of the measurements. I think I really need some help!
Hi. I am old. Old people need all the help they can get. When was it exactly that I began forgetting the names of everyday things, lik forks? I like to call it overload, which implies that I have a million things going on at once. That sounds so much better than senility.
This sounds like exactly what I need to keep my brain engaged and stimulated! Thanks for having such a great giveaway!
Ive wanted something like this for a long time, but have never been able to justify spending money on it, this would be perfect!
Schweet! My brain is probably as mommy mushy as most of everyone else’s here, but mostly this just sounds fun. Like the brain academy game for the DS…only I don’t have the DS or the brain game, so this game would be great!
I’ve been reflecting lately on the fact that my brain seems to have leaked out my nose the past few weeks. Nasty, huh? You just better hope germs don’t travel through the Web.
One child and there are days where I’ve felt I’ve lost it… losing keys, losing child, losing sanity, it’s amazing what happens to your brain as you age and I’m only 26!
This sounds fun! I need some brain help. Sign me up.
I really have a major problem with atrophy of the brain…maybe this is exactly what I need to put some muscle in my memory!!
I would love so very much a chance to improve my mental reflexes.
Thanks for your blog….I look forward to reading your adventures.
Jason
Oh boy, do we need this around here! Thanks for the opportunity!
I swore I just entered this a minute ago…please disregard if my name shows up twice. Brains would be good right about now!
My brain could use some stimulating.
oooh, sounds like fun times!
I’d love to win one! Sounds like a lot of fun.
Count me in! With three little ones (and hoping for more) my brain could use all the help it can get! 😉
ooohhhhh yes yes yes…hope i win! love your disembodied head profile pic!
sounds fun- pick me!
What the heck. I usually win shower games. I’ll give it a try – I LOOOve games.
I so need that! my brain is daily losing cells and things that I once knew…
