I taught my nephew to play when he was 7 or 8. Within no time he was beating me nine times out of ten. It's great to see someone pick up the game and take to it so well.
I wish I started playing earlier. It translates to real life directly.
I wish I played more often. I'm going to go download a chess app for my tablet! Thanks for the inspiration.
Aw man you're about to have a blast.
Check out the climbing the chess ladder series for some ridiculously gentle and efficient direction on how to think at different levels.
The app is great. The lessons are great. The puzzles are useful.
