Learn to play chess
Chess is an ancient game, that dates back about 1,500 years ago with roots bearing from the country of India. The first games were actually played with stones. Today, chess is played on the internet, at parks, parties, military bases, churches, libraries, schools, in space, and just about anywhere you can think of playing. All that is required to play a game of chess is a chess board, chess pieces, and an opponent. The game is very similar to checkers, except for the pieces used on the board. Parents may ask if their child should play chess. Kids begin learning the game as early as five years of age.
