Logical and sequential thinking are also encountered in chess and are
possibly the two most important aspects when calculating combinations.
Sequential thinking comes into practice when having to plan ahead and
working out sequences (which can get very complex when we consider
the increase in possibilities after each move), whilst logical thinking is
used when reacting to opponents’ plans, and working out our own at
each and every turn. Obviously these two attributes are both heavily
linked to maths where using logic is important and the ability to work
through problems sequentially becomes invaluable.
We all know that the very benefit of scrabble is to improve spelling and
vocabulary. Scrabble, undoubtedly improves the word spelling not only
for kids but all of the people, player or not. While playing the game, we
can teach other people the basic rules of spelling a word. They will
definitely grasp the word and its spelling quickly. This game will teach us
new words and their meanings. While playing the game, if you put a new
word on the board, we would positively be inquisitive about knowing its
meaning and for sure will remember the word for the next time. This
way, we will increase our vocabulary too.
Just like chess and scrabble games of the general teaches lessons about
getting along with others. In playing games of general logical and
sequential thinking are encountered and are possibly the two most
important aspects when calculating combinations. Sequential thinking
comes into practice when having to plan ahead and working out
sequences (which can get very complex when we consider the increase
in possibilities after each move), whilst logical thinking is used when
reacting to opponents’ plans, and working out our own at each and
every turn. Obviously these two attributes are both heavily linked to

When we are taught to play games of the generals, we do not only learn
the moves but also patterns that are created. By remembering these
patterns we are sharpening our memories, and this helps us in all areas
of learning. Indeed such is the power of chess with regards to memory
that it has been proved to help ward off Alzheimer’s disease in the
elderly.
