The reusable “I Can Match My Chess Pieces” learning mat uses a hands-on approach to help your child recognize Chess pieces and learn how they move in the game. Your learning mat comes with a thorough Grownup Guide to present the learning mat at your child’s pace.

An approach to teaching young children Chess moves is by telling engaging stories they can relate to and making them memorable. Sample stories are included in the Parent Guide!

Recognizing that each piece has its own distinct form is a precursor to number and letter recognition, among many other pre-academic skills. This is why it’s possible to teach very young children the game of Chess!
