This one looks simple at first glance. But, after repeating it out loud for seven times – you will have repeated it 21 times in a row. Believe me when I say it is not as easy as it looks. You will probably have the entire family repeating this silly set of three words throughout the holidays.
Do this now: Repeat the tongue twister below seven (7) times using a loud, strong voice. Memorize this tongue twister. You only have to remember three words in the correct order.

Once memorized, say this tongue twister out loud every time you see a holiday decoration during the next three days. Saying this tongue twister activates the power of your brain’s plasticity. Your neurons will thank you.
What is a tongue-twister?
A tongue-twister is a phrase that is designed to be difficult to articulate properly. Tongue-twisters rely on similar but distinct phenomena, unfamiliar constructs or other strange combinations of the sound and meaning of words. Tongue-twisters use a combination of alliteration and rhyme. They have two or three sequences of sounds. The same sequences are repeated with an exchange of similar sounds.
Why does saying tongue twisters out loud help Build Neural Networks?
Talking loudly improves your voice significantly. Memorization of seemingly nonsensical sentences forges new neural networks. This benefits motor skills and memory acuity as well as expressiveness.
