Chess Sets News: Summer 2005 Updates

Fall 2005 BACK TO SCHOOL - A GREAT TIME TO ENJOY CHESS

Chess, even though a year around sport, shows even greater interest in August and September when school begins for both young children and young adults. This is the time of year when parents buy chess sets for their younger children because they know that chess is a tremendous aid when it comes to improved thinking. The young adults either buy or are given sets so they can play chess in their spare time instead of doing less mind intensive things like watching T.V. or playing video games.

It has been proven time and time again that chess is a valuable tool when it comes to exercizing the mind and training it to work more efficiently. So many of our youth are never taught to think ahead but simply react to situations as they happen. But playing chess trains the mind to look ahead but simply react to situations as they happen. But playingchess trains the mind to look ahead and see the consequences of one's actions. Put chess sets in front of our youth instead of mindless games and watch grades rise. It does not matter whether it is an inexpensive portable chess set, or a fancy marble chess set, or a standard wooden chess set. The game of chess is a mind expander.

So what is the perfect gift for that young person going off to school for the first time or going back to the college dorm? A chess set, of course. There are more here than anywhere else in the world. Your Move Chess & Games, America's largest chess store.
