But National Puzzle Day is the perfect chance to go back to basics: do a jigsaw puzzle, solve a crossword puzzle or buy a Rubik's Cube, or you can even download dozen of puzzle games on your phone. While puzzles, as we know them today, are a fairly modern invention, the idea of taking words and using them creatively dates back to ancient Roman times. The first jigsaw puzzles were developed in the mid-1700s, by a British cartographer --John Spilsbury. He started by fastening a map of Europe onto some wood and then cutting out each country. These were then used to teach children about the different countries on the continent. Study after study shows that playing any type of puzzle, soduko, wordle etc is great for your keeping your brain young!"
