Teen Think Tank: Healthy Habits

Teen Think Tank

It's so easy for us to fall into bad habits (like eating junk food or staying up all night playing video games or watching anime), especially during long school breaks. Does this sound like you? January is a month when lots of people renew their dedication to good health, so I thought I'd share some resources to help you get there!

Teen Think Tank: National Puzzle Day

Teen Think Tank
Do you love the challenge of solving a good puzzle? I do! Did you know they're not just fun, but good for us, too? Celebrated on the 29th of January every year, the National Puzzle Day is to remind ourselves how puzzles can keep our brains working smart. Puzzles have been quite popular among all age groups across the world and they come in different forms and kinds. There are Sudoku puzzles, jigsaw puzzles, crosswords, and many more different types of puzzles in the world. It doesn't matter how old you are or which kind of puzzle you choose to work on, they help in stimulating your brain cells and making them active! And when the puzzles require you to work with others, you will develop and hone your social interactive skills as well.
