Popular board games for seniors include classics like Scrabble, Chess, and Bingo, as well as strategic options such as Ticket to Ride and Rummikub. When choosing a game, consider factors like ease of learning, large-print components for vision impairment, and shorter game lengths for those who prefer quicker rounds.
Popular card games for seniors include Bridge, Rummy, and Solitaire, which offer a mix of social and solitary activities to keep the mind engaged. Other good options are Hearts, Spades, and Crazy Eights, which can help improve memory and problem-solving skills. When selecting a game, consider large-print or easy-to-handle cards to accommodate vision or dexterity needs.
Puzzles benefit seniors by improving cognitive function, enhancing emotional and mental well-being, and encouraging social interaction. They can boost memory, problem-solving skills, and concentration while reducing stress and anxiety. Puzzles also improve fine motor skills and visual-spatial reasoning, and studies suggest they may even help delay symptoms of dementia.

A Journal for Jordan (2021)
Directed by Denzel Washington and starring Michael B. Jordan with a screenplay by Virgil Williams, A JOURNAL FOR JORDAN is based on the true story of First Sergeant Charles Monroe King (Jordan), a soldier deployed to Iraq who begins to keep a journal of love and advice for his infant son. Back at home, senior New York Times editor Dana Canedy (Chanté Adams) revisits the story of her unlikely, life-altering relationship with King and his enduring devotion to her and their child. A sweeping account of a once-in-a-lifetime love, the film is a powerful reminder of the importance of family.
