In reply to Trudy. Yes! Makism Aksanov's book is great and the coloring pages at the end of each chapter do the job. My daughter is very happy and eager to solve the tasks. This is exactly what I was looking for for my son

In reply to Trudy. I love this game set. I think it makes learning something new for the whole family while teaching your children to play is such an awesome thing. There is nothing like the togetherness of a game night. The whole family participating laughing and enjoying each other's companies a great thing. Thanks for recommending Maksim Aksanov book.

I, probably like most of us, have only played chess a handful of times in my life, back when I was a teen. I wish that I had learned to play better, or to fully understand the game. Story Time Chess is a great tool to teach your kids chess, and may also help you to learn if you’re not so hot at the game yourself! It uses an interactive storybook to help teach kids about chess through fun characters. Kids can visualize the pieces through these character cutouts that are attached to the chess pieces, which helps to understand how each piece moves.Introducing chess to our children is a very good idea. It’s important to know, it might sound obvious, but isn’t so, that you can do it from a very young age and you don’t have to explain it with proper rules. Why? This is the obvious part – because there is no fun in it. But with books like this, by Richard James, or like the one writen by Makism Aksanov (net-boss.org/chess-puzzles-for-kids-by-maksim-aksanov) and by many, many more chess entthusiasts, it’s very easy to teach with all the fun and play, and make with this game a very rich, fantasy world of our kids 🙂

In reply to Sarah L. It's such a fun game but it's definitely vital to understand the pieces and how they move! I'm an impatient person so it's hard for me to play against someone who is super critical about each move, but it's been so fun teaching our kids how to play and learning more myself!

I almost learned to play chess many years ago. I’d need this game to teach me for real.
