If the center pieces are still attached, simply take the pieces and place them in the correct positions, making sure to put an edge piece in last. Your cube should be as good as new!
If one of the center pieces actually broke off, the solution is more complicated. Let me say this first: DO NOT USE GLUE! This will end up with one side that cannot move, and it will not fix it. One solution that I came up with is to put a FOLDED paper towel, napkin, or tissue over the metal frame where the center piece goes, and push down on the piece until it snaps into place. Then, assemble the cube as above, again making sure that an edge piece goes in last. At first, your cube will be very difficult to move, considering the friction, but it should improve with some use. If it is dropped, it will break again, so be careful.

Try doing some brain teasers or games that make you think. Sodoku, Rubiks cube, and crosswords are always good. It doesn't help if you give up though; if you don't get it try again or ask someone to explain it to you. You should improve everytime you do one.
