Elderly people are the most growing part of the population in developed countries (Europe, North America, Japan and Korea). Our team is concerned about this issue and wants to bring some changes about elderly people stereotypes. If we consider that young generation is busy all day along and deep into the technologies, the elderly population is getting more and more isolated and having lack of the attention and interaction. This isolation can lead to a lack in physical and cognitive activities. Based on the background research we found that mental exercise plays one of the greatest role to stay active and alive. It prevents seniors to get dementia or other disease such as Alzheimer. Mental exercise stimulates the brain, often providing long lasting positive effects regarding thinking, reasoning skills, memory and processing speed. Board games and puzzles are the most used methods to keep elderly mentally active.
