Those are great ideas. Thanks.
DS plays at school once a week (at the chess team-club). There are 8 kids mostly from higher grades, but he seemed to keep up just fine. DS came up with the idea of tournaments, I thought he was too little to get into anything competitive like that. That was part of the reason to meet with the professional to get an idea, where he is.
I have considered the Chess club, we have one not so far, I have been researching their web site, but it seems very adult oriented.
I am glad, JBDAD, that your experience with chess clubs is very welcoming towards the little ones. I think, based on your experience we will go there and see. They do meet pretty late in the afternoon, but at least it is on Fridays.
I will check the chess.com and the tutorial game.
We bought one book already: Teach yourself visually chess. And it is exactly what my DS did, he thought him self. LOL
The teacher kind of rank him at least a 1000 as of yesterday, maybe more he said.
There is some local tournament in our area in beginning of November, DS is really begging us to go. I guess I will let him do it. I just need to make sure that he is emotionally ready, too.
Thanks for all great ideas.
