Playing games with friends and family can be helpful for physical and emotional recovery after surviving a stroke. Here are a few favorites. What are some of your favorite games?

🎲 Card games. Simple games like War or Go Fish can be great fun during stroke recovery. Every time you use your hands, you send signals to the brain for recovery.

🎲 Puzzles. Putting together a puzzle can be a great activity for stroke patients. If you get too frustrated, you can always take a break and come back later.

🎲 Sudoku. This crossword-style brain game involves numbers and math. It comes in different levels of difficulty. Start with the easy ones and see if you like it.

🎲 Checkers. This fun activity for stroke patients requires strategy and fine motor skills.

🎲 Chess. This game requires more critical thinking than checkers.
Trivia. Give your memory and critical thinking a workout with some trivia.
