Can I brag for a moment? My kid rocks at chess.

No, he's not Garry Kasparov, but his chess club instructor did call him one of the best players for his age that's he's seen. What's better is that after 2 years he still can't get enough of the game. Here's to hoping he keeps it up!

It's a great game of strategy. My husband used to play in chess tournaments and he had a rating. He tried to teach me, but I was hopeless!

I hope your son will keep at it too.
