Chess is a popular game around the world for its brain-boosting benefits. Our school chess club has kicked off virtually this year. We meet weekly to play and learn chess online. In this remote and virtual year, I would love to be able to gift a REAL chess set to each student member so that they can play and practice at home with their family and friends, especially over the winter break. There is no replacement for a physical game that you can play with your parent or sibling. These chess sets would allow my students to do that. Chess gives them a way to practice strategy, critical thinking, problem solving, sportsmanship, and concentration. They deserve this gift!
