Play this little game to spark your inner creativity and to jump start your brain. Also this will help with concentration and focus.

Rules: Start by writing one word, then keep writing more words associated with the last word. Remember to write the first word that comes into your head! No matter how ridiculous or inappropriate. Those are the only rules, other than that let your brain roam!

Try to get as many words as you can. My record so far is 412!
