It’s no secret that down time in my days are slim to none.  BUT…when I do have down time I love to grab a cup of coffee and relax alongside a good quick game of Pyramid Solitaire.  It’s a very quick brain challenge to keep me thinking and exercising my brain even during “down time”.  Not to mention if I’m sitting in a waiting room, a car line or any other place I’m idol I can easily play a quick game right from my phone.

I think I love this spin on this classic card game because growing up a vivid memory of my late PawPaw was this game.  When we stayed the night at my grandparents house we’d wake up to the sound of cards shuffling on their kitchen table…as I’d walk into the kitchen with droopy eyes there sat my PawPaw playing with a cup of black coffee.  It’s so vivid in my mind even though that was 20+ years ago.

Fast forward to now I don’t always have a deck of cards on a quick down minute so downloading this onto my phone makes it quick and accessible!  Pyramid Solitaire is a classic card game where you must clear the pyramid by matching pairs of cards that equal 13. Each game takes just 1-2 minutes, making Pyramid Solitaire the perfect game to play on-the-go and in-between various items on my to-do list!

So whether you have down time, wanting a simple and easy game to play, looking for ways to keep your brain sharp or maybe it’s a way to relax and unwind you can go here to download your free app –> HERE.

PS I even got my husband to try his hand at this mind challenge!
