Pegs is a fun wooden game you will always find on the table at Cracker Barrel restaurants in the U.S. This is a one-person strategy game that really makes you concentrate.

For those of you who never visited Cracker Barrel, the game looks something like this:

Cracker Barrel peg game.

Here's how the Cracker Barrel website explains how to play this game:

"Jump by clicking and dragging an adjoining peg to the open hole on the other side. Each time a peg is jumped, it is automatically removed. You can only remove pegs by jumping them.

See if you are a genius by leaving only one peg on the board!"

HOW TO PLAY. Click the game once to activate it. Click any single peg to remove it from the board. Now you are read to start playing!

To jump, first click the peg that is going to jump. Then, click the hole where the peg is going to land (by jumping over an adjacent peg).

If you make a mistake, click the Undo arrow in the upper right. Click the Reset arrow to start over. Have fun!

I complete a quick, 10-minute Lumosity brain training session every morning. These training sessions exercise the different areas of my brain and prepare my mind for the day ahead. Over time, these sessions have sharpened my memory and other mental abilities in a significant and noticeable way.

A Lumosity brain training "session" consists of several mind-expanding brain games designed by the scientists at Lumosity and automatically selected for my individualized training program. Examples include Birdwatching, Monster Garden, Lost in Migration, and Spatial Speed Match, just to name a few.

Scientific studies show that Lumosity brain training measurably improves memory, attention, cognitive control, and processing speed. To help me track my own improvement, the "My History" section of Lumosity charts my brain's capabilities over time with easy-to-read graphs and Brain Performance Index (BPI) scores.
