^You CAN teach a 6 year old chess - pretty much any game ('cause
kids brains are wired for games) but be prepared when they want
to play "1/2 my way and 1/2 your way" : suddenly, my captured
pieces became shadow pieces who were indestructable protectors
of his pieces, sword fights and more. He'll probably get bored
with it in no time, but it'll be familiar to him if it comes up
in the future in school or something. 2011 at 8:15pm EDT^^
