Customer Review: A game for young kids not for real serious players
My son loves his set. It is true that it falls apart as you are moving some of the pieces but we decided with our son to put some crazyglue to stabilize them. He has set it up on his night table and thinks is the coolest thing possible and the best result is that he has gotten interested in chess! I love it too!
Customer Review: Suprisingly Unusable, Terrible
We have been big fans of Lego products. This, to our surprise, is awful. The idea is good but it is unusable as a chess board. When trying to move the pieces, they almost always fall apart. The pieces are too big for the spots so your fingers knock the corresponding pieces down and apart when you try to place them. The pawns’ knees bend while the legs move so they need to be perfectly positioned in order for the pawn to stand on the spot you place it. If you want to place chess, buy anything but this. If you want something that looks good in the box, this is just o.k. Ours will go into the pile of miscellaneous Lego pieces in the middle of the play room.
Weapons & Tactics: A Child’s Introduction to Chess This fully illustrated book allows even chess novice parents to teach the Game of Kings to their children. Specifically designed for use with children 4+, this book breaks down the moves and even many of the tactics of chess into their most basic components. Parents and children alike will enjoy the clever illustrations, straight-forward text, and inspirational advice.
Customer Review: A quick and easy introduction
If you are looking for a chess book that that isn’t too involved and you want short and simple this is it! I recommend it for any kid who just wants to learn the very basics (otherwise consider “Chess for Juniors” for older kids or more material on strategy).
I also like “You Can Play Chess” for kids in Kindergarten or First Grade who want lots of pictures and the rules.
Weapons and Tactics is basic, but what kids like.
Customer Review: Great Book for Children!
This book was cleverly written and illustrated; children and adults can both benefit from the lessons presented. Basic chess rules are covered, as well as a fair amount of strategy. I strongly recommend it, especially as a gift.
