Make Your Move and Help Your Children to Master Chess

With the UK Chess Challenge breaking more records this year with over 70,000 children taking part, chess is enjoying a period of rapid growth with more young children keen to learn the game.

Why is this? Apart from the well publicised link to improved academic performance, chess is still the ultimate game of strategy and great fun to play. Another key factor is that Chess is "cool again" with the news that some of our leading iconic celebrities are chess players. Bono, Sting and Lennox Lewis are all keen players.

To help children master the game, the award winning children's PC game Learn to Play Chess with Fritz & Chesster is now available in the UK through Chess Academy at only £19.99 plus £1.99 P&P. Aimed at children aged 6 years and above, your child will learn the basic rules and tactics by going on an interactive journey of discovery to understand the role of each piece and how they move around the board. Within four weeks they could be challenging you to a game!
