How to Read the Crossword Clue "BODYPARTAY" and the Fun of Twister

Crossword puzzles give small, clear problems. The clue reads: "Celebration that involves rowdy games of Twister, facetiously?" One answer fits: "BODYPARTAY."

What "BODYPARTAY" Means

How the Word Works

The answer joins two plain ideas. Take the words "body part." Take the word "party." Push them together until they share letters and sound the same. The result "BODYPARTAY," names a party where guests twist arms plus legs on the Twister mat until the scene looks like a heap of spare parts.

Why Twister Fits

Twister asks players to place a hand or foot on a colored dot. Each move pulls the body further out of shape. The mat soon holds a tangle of limbs. When every player loses balance, the laughter starts. One glance at the pile of arms and legs tells you the party has turned into a "BODYPARTAY."

Why Crossword Puzzles Attract People

Mental Gains

Crossword puzzles give the brain a workout. Each clue forces the solver to retrieve or invent a word that fits the counted squares. People who do this every day keep a wider vocabulary, recall names faster, stay focused longer and slow the usual slide of memory that comes with age.

Feeling of Success

Each correct letter locks into place with a small click of satisfaction. When the last square is filled, the solver feels a clear, immediate reward. That finished grid returns a burst of confidence and pulls the same person toward the next puzzle.

Celebrating with Twister and Crosswords

• Hold a Twister contest. The last player who stays on the mat picks the next crossword that the whole group will fill in.
• Give one prize to the person who shows the strangest Twister pose and a second prize to the person who finishes a crossword first.
