To add to our busy day already, we had a long time planed meeting with a very good rated chess player-teacher later in the afternoon. My DS (5) learned how to play chess about half of year ago, it was his initiative. He loves it and wants to play chess all the time. They picked him at school to be part of their chess team. I thought he was good for a little kid (I really don't know much about chess, just how the pieces move.) The teacher's assessment today came as a shock: He said that my son is so extremely talented for chess, that this is very very rare to see (maybe 1:100 000 he said)
Do any of you have children interested in chess, what do you do? My DS just loved working with this chess teacher, so we will scrounge some money and have him work with him once a week. I guess some local competitions are next. This whole chess world is kind of new to me.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
