Babysitting your Grandchildren May Be Good for Your Brain!

New research reveals that women who take care of their grandchildren one day  a week are less likely to develop Alzheimer’s. This is because the mental  activity derived from looking after youngsters can actually increase brain  function. Women who looked after their grandchildren one day a week had a better  memory for words. (Keep in mind, however, that if grandparents look after  grand-kids five days a week or more, it can actually have a negative impact on  their mental health.)
