I recommend something like Brain Age which is intended for this (available for DS currently). Also games like tetris and columns, or word games like typing of the dead or word jumble. Or you can play suduku online. In terms of playing a game, you have to be selective on what game you play.

Often times, I'll challenge myself to do menial tasks in different ways just to find out if I can do them. If I could add anything to this list, I would recommend writing stories. When we're free-writing stories, it causes our brains to work twice as hard to create interesting and exotic ideas. On building further with these stories, play Dungeons and Dragons, that game provokes your brain to be quick and come up with interesting material!

If your brain is used to reading one thing all the time, it is no longer exercised as much by that thing. You must give it new challenges.

You can't help but stretch your mind. I enjoy revisiting the puzzle days or hours later to see so many that I knew but did not get the first time. Your brain works on them unconsciously when you put it down for a break. Better yet, get yourself one of those furry bundles of love that will make you laugh - a dog or cat I speak of.
