Chess Parents

Thank you parents for supporting Little Chess Mates.

Choosing chess as an after-school activity for your children will help them achieve better school grades. The benefits that chess can offer will contribute to their learning ability.

"If you can win at chess then nobody can call you stupid. For real? Ya for real!"--Quote from Knights Of The South Bronx movie --.

We thank you for becoming chess parents and for volunteering your time in playing chess with your children!


Please support us by visiting our Chess Store to purchase chess equipment, books, dvds, and other items.

Little Chess Mates has a few recommendations for parents of our chess participants.

  1. Must play chess with your child at home, even if you are just setting up the board, and learning the basics of the game.
  2. Make chess fun at home. You are their strongest role model and supporter.
  3. Purchase a personal chess board for their child. Children will do better and take pride in their learning when they can take ownership of their own chess board.
  4. Be able to drive them to Children Chess Park and join in on the chess fun
  5. Offer encouragement before and after each game and have discussions about what took place and what can be improved next time.
  6. Ensure child's well-being is always top priority and that children are well-rested before each lesson or game.
  7. To encourage calmness under game pressure, concentration, focusing, and patience.
  8. Above all else, be supportive and a shoulder to lean on especially after a loss. Display a fresh perspective on the world and remember that they are only children.
