Chess Mates for Kids
& Beginners

My 8 year old son loves the animation in Chess Mates. He has learned more in one week with Chess Mates than I could teach him in a month! He especially loves to see his Progress Chart as the "diamonds" appear marking his accomplishments. But I see his improvement on the chess board.
