Jigsaw puzzles have a therapeutic effect, exercising the brain whilst providing hours of relaxation. Putting a puzzle together allows for improved concentration as well as encouraging reminiscing.

Reminiscing has been shown to have major benefits such as self-reflection and an improved sense of self-worth for seniors and those living with dementia.
