Chess teaches kids how to act like a nice person when they win, and even more important, how to learn from their defeats - how to learn their current limitations, and how to progress. If a kid understand to apply this to other areas of life - its priceless :) This is one way of becoming smarter.

Teach your kids to play early - very early. My 5 year old son played his first game 2 weeks ago and after 30 games and several hours of self initiated KZbin chess instruction, he already sees good moves I overlooked, uses chess notation and language (“daddy your pawn on h2 is hanging!”), and understands basic tactics and common checkmates. I think most kids his age can do the same, if they are introduced to the game and have fun playing it.

It is logical that chess improves your intelligence in those areas that are used during chess, enabling you to solve other problems that require the same brain areas. Saying playing chess only makes you better at chess is like saying lifting weights will only make you stronger at lifting those same weights in the gym but not lifting up furniture. The strengthened cortex and increased neuronal connections will help you in other tasks as well. But you should be serious when playing chess. Playing with skilled opponents that force you to think. Blindly doing moves without even trying to think a step ahead won't do much good. You have to challenge your brain like you challenge your muscles with heavy weights.

I started to play because I wanted to increase my intelligence. A kind friend took me their wing and taught me and we have played for hours. At first I took a long time to make moves I felt so confused. I couldn't see possiblity, I didn't have a strategy. But then it started to click I started understand the pieces better, and how to analyze the board. Honestly when I first started I didn't even like it but my hope it would grow on me made me keep trying. I'm so glad I stuck to it. Now im enjoying it and that's increasing the more and more I practice. Chess is really good stuff☺️🧠💝 I'm so greatful for the brains ability to learn.

@@v0id3333 You have to dedicate ae time and have a good reason to learn, I was playing and losing against a guy I liked alot and I was motivated to prove myself and my intelligence by beating him and it worked for me, I won 7 times in a row when initially I couldn't beat him in even one game. You have to find what motivates you. Now I just play because I actually love it. But also because I want to remain smart as I value intelligence highly. I'm just like a classic love story except it's usually the guy that gets motivated to prove himself to the girl.

Most people never play chess long enough to understand how rewarding it is to develop a strategy and to see it work out. Chess is as competitive as any other sport out there. One of the things that I find most rewarding about the game is that in the end, there isn't any dispute about who wins or loses. You either achieve victory or suffer defeat.

A lot of comments talk about kids and schools, but older beginners at chess can just study techniques to tap into the subconscious. The reason little kids pick up on things is because they're constantly in a theta state, deeper into subconscious (which controls 95% of what we do) than alpha (which occurs during meditation, prayer, rolling eyes up without hurting). If you habitually tell yourself (out loud or silently) to pick up on things in chess games that surprise you, tell yourself "more and more and more every game," especially if you imagine the feeling of pleasant surprise, you'll see results. Don't struggle to do it, just trust that it'll happen, that other aspects of you are making it happen behind the scenes without you trying. Repitition is a key component of subconscious program. Also, if you tell yourself as you're going to bed and as soon as you wake up. The state when not fully asleep, but starting to dream a little is very powerful, but anytime with eyes closed and/or rolled up is good.

Chess is an addiction. And once you r into it then it's difficult to come out of it. It develop urges. And if urges defeats your mind then it's difficult to focus on anything else. This thing is not a small thing. Lot of people are wasting thier time playing chess and not able to stop the urges of playing. If it's your profession u r earning money than it's all okay. Otherwise it can be dangerous. It develops memory concentration etc but it helps at an optimal level in the game only and not in the real world .
