Here are 6 virtues of playing chess :
Self-awareness "I develop my personality by playing chess. First, I learn to be objective. One can only become a great player if one knows their flaws perfectly." – Alexandre Alekhine, 4th World Chess Champion.
Chess is fun The virtues of chess are numerous: memory, concentration, self-confidence... You will benefit from its many advantages simply by playing and enjoying good moments!
Improving decision-making In front of the chessboard, you are the master of the game, and you must play! Chess trains you to make choices within a limited time, analyzing the pros and cons of the different possible moves.
Building perseverance The chess player tries, loses, bounces back, tries again, learns from their mistakes... and then wins! This persistent attitude is called perseverance, which is so important in life!
Self-confidence A good move or a winning game significantly boosts self-confidence. Losses, far from being dramatic, help you progress. And this increased confidence will spill over into areas outside the chessboard!
Improving math skills Traditional games like chess (...) stimulate logical reasoning and help rekindle the enjoyment of mathematics. They are excellent tools for decomposing and composing numbers, as well as practicing reasoning.
These are skills that will help your child in their educational journey !
