Journey a thousand mile begin with the single step. This saying is absolutely apply including in chess.
If we look the life of chess grandmaster, you will find that almost all of them begin to play chess at the young age. The Israeli grandmaster Boris Gelfand write about how children encourage to play chess in his howetown of Rishon-Lezion. Eventhough he is almost totally busy with his preparation for match against World Champion Vishy Anand in May.

His report was publish in chess base news with the title A journey to the world of chess in Rishon Lezion.

I am absolutely agree with Director of elementary education Miri Or-Gottfried about great importance in the operation of learning chess in primary schools. He believes through game and fun, the kids run a higher-order thinking process that translates into strategic thinking, the motivation to study, collaboration between kids, developing the ability to control oneself emotionally when you won or lose, and thus to express the value of respecting others and more.

Do yourself a favour and watch these inspiring video impressions (in HD) of chess in the kindergarten. Please comment what do you think

Most of the grandmasters of chess learn how to play chess since they are little child. As far as I know, not many chess book available for our children to read and makes learning chess fun. One of book that I recommend for children is children’s illustrated chess book , How To Play Chess Like an Animal by Anthea Carson.

This book shows chess openings that have animal names since there are lots of chess openings named after animals. The Orangutan, the Bird, the Alligator, the Pelican to name just a few.
The author herself is a tournament chess player, chess coach and chess author. She is frequently listed in the top 100 chess-playing females in the U.S. She has been playing chess and writing since she was a child.

The book explain the moves of the opening and strategy involved in the opening through fairy tales in the spirit of Aesop’s fables. I wonder why there is no such book like this when I was a kid

Unlike playing cards, chess seems pretty easy to learn. There is only one game and a few simple rules that one needs to remember. Hence everybody can learn how to play chess but very few people could play chess like Anatoly Karpov.

Why such seemingly simple game requires a pretty smart person to master?
