Chess is one of the world’s most popular board games and is perfect for one on one time with friends and children.

The unique challenges of the game are helpful for problem solving later in life because the game not only expands critical thinking but also enhances memory. Additionally, playing Chess with a parent is a quality time of memories for a child that cannot be matched.
Chess teaches foresight, by having to plan ahead; vigilance, by having to keep watch over the whole chess board; caution, by having to restrain ourselves from making hasty moves; and finally, we learn from chess the greatest maxim in life – that even when everything seems to be going badly for us we should not lose heart, but always hoping for a change for the better, steadfastly continue searching for the solutions to our problems. – Benjamin Franklin
