It's true! Science now shows this is a fact!
Those that learn stuff at an older age stave off the "ravages of time" better.
It's all over the news and books and magazines. How to age more slowly in the brain and (I still say, due to my own observations) in the body.
That's the reason for all those websites that exercise the brain.
However...
Crosswords are soon gone. Sudoku works but it suffers the same fate as crosswords.
I think the best choice of all is learning quickly how to play most of your favorite music on an electronic keyboard.
Why can you learn quickly? Well, the electronic keyboard is an advance over the acoustic piano for many, many reasons. The uses common chords, which are...well...common!
Also, most folks don't really want mastery of the instrument. They would simply love to be able to play their favorite tunes as a NON-professional.
Oh, sure there will always be professionals, such as me.
Why can you learn at all? Isn't learning the province of children.
My experience says it ain't at all. Most adults bring far more "to the table" of learning than any kid ever did.
Honestly, all kids have in their corner is "enthusiasm." If an adult had such, they would have it all!
