Chess Fun For Little Ones is designed for, well, little ones! We find that children aged between 1 - 7 years old are the most engaged with this book, although adults have found it pretty fun too!

Absolutely not! We've made it super easy for chess novices to teach their children chess, with a short poem describing each piece and the moves the piece can make, and of course, all the lights that show you everything you need to know!

In addition to teaching the basics of chess, this book helps children develop valuable skills such as hand-eye coordination, pattern recognition, memory and focus. By learning how to play chess early on, kids also improve their strategic thinking and logical reasoning, which are beneficial both in and out of the game.

Let's be honest, your child probably isn't going to be playing a full chess game straight after using this. However, they’ll know the names of the pieces and how they move, which is a huge first step! Strategy and gameplay come later, but this book builds a strong foundation for future chess champions.

We find that younger children love pressing the clicky button to see the coloured lights and patterns and looking at the characters, whereas older children from 3 or 4 will start to understand what's going on a lot better and remember the patterns of how each piece moves.

Absolutely! It pairs beautifully with a chess set if you want to reinforce learning by showing the moves on a real board.

Our book has 6 pages, each featuring a different chess piece. Each page has a cute illustration of the chess piece to bring it to life, plus a rhyme that explains more about how the piece moves.

We have a big, clicky button that when pressed, shows the direction that each piece can move in on the board. For example, for the Rook, it would light up first vertically, then horizontally, then finally will show both directions together. Our objective with this book is to help build the foundation for chess, which to us, starts with how the pieces move.

Absolutely! We are parents too so are not taking any chances. We have carefully designed every single aspect with little explorers in mind:

• The LEDs and battery compartment are fully enclosed for safety.
• Made from super sturdy, toddler-proof materials that can handle excited hands.
• We’re certified by all the top toy safety standards (including EN71, CPC and ASTM F963)

You can buy the book directly from our website - we're also working on making it available in other marketplaces and stores soon.

We've selected durable, tear & chew-resistant board book material - because we know children's books need to be tough!.
