Brain Fuel for parents and their kids

September 9, 2009 · Filed Under Announcement

I love brain teasers. I loved going them in school and I loved doing them at home. I was such a nerd. Doing this tour; I received a 30 day subscription to Lumonsity.com so that I could participate in some brain games.

My brain is so rusty. So I was playing some word games and man I’m rusty. I need to do some reading a little less writing. Wouldn’t you like to give your kids a fun way to get that brain back from summer vacation? My score for the first game was only 180. EEEK. it was bad.

Giving your kids an extra edge may prove easier than you think thanks to a new web-based program called BrainFuel. BrainFuel is designed to maximize our children’s learning potential.

bfood_breakfast_hugs BrainFuel4Kids.com aims to help take your child’s learning to the next level. Research suggests key changes in diet, exercise, and sleep can enhance cognitive abilities, and BrainFuel thus offers sections like "Brain Food," "Healthy Brain," and "Brain Games," aimed at engaging kids and Moms alike. Moms you can learn things like knowing that breakfast is the most important meal of the day and . Breakfast helps you wake up. They even have recipes you can try.

There are four tabs at the top of the page of Brain Fuel, brain food, brain health, brain games and brain form. Each tab will take you to a new place to help either you or you child. Such as:

• Explanations for our kids in answer to their complaints, "Why vitamins?!": "The brain is the greediest organ in your body – greedier than the spleen or stomach, even greedier than the heart" and other "why?!" questions.

• Challenging games for kids from Lumosity.com, designed to promote quicker thinking, better concentration, and improved memory.

• Recipes that give your kids the right balances of carbs and protein, and help understanding those complicated nutritional labels.

The games from Lumonsity are fun and range in complexity. It’s a great way to get going again.

“I wrote this review while participating in a blog tour campaign by Mom Central on behalf of BrainFuel and received an insulated lunch bag from California Innovations to thank me for taking the time to participate.”
