He's got the bigger size Kindle but he doesn't seem that into it.

He can't get up to his study, so we wired his desktop PC into the tele downstairs and he can manage the keyboard and mouse with one hand to read stuff on the internet.

Get him signed up to here? That will keep his mind active.
 
If he likes number puzzles what about something like this, an electronic sudoku machine

Edit - Can't seem to post the link? It was on Amazon

I know deserve to be shot for thinking about Christmas!

I'd like to buy my Mam and Dad some board games that Dad can play to help work his mind after his stroke. He likes number or shape puzzles best. Needs to be games he can play one handed as it's not looking likely that he'll get use of his left arm in the near future.

Anyone got any sensible suggestions?

Anyone suggested Dopple yet? Great for all ages especially with booze as an equaliser.
 
Blokus is interesting. What about Backgammon?
Not exactly board games, but Boggle & Bananagrams are both good
 
I am sure a certain uncle on here could get some Christmas ideas from this thread.
