Studies have
shown that children who play chess on a regular basis are better at problem
solving abilities. Playing this ancient game helps the kids to increase their
concentration, enhance their logical reasoning abilities, and help improve
their analytical abilities – all traits that help in problem solving.
There
are various ways in which children can learn how to
play chess. They can learn it from their parents, teachers, family,
relatives or friends. They can also learn it by joining a chess coaching
academy or online classes. In fact, online classes are one of the better ways
to learn and practice the game.
Here is how
online chess increases the child’s problem solving abilities:
Improves
their concentration
The constant
attention that children have to give the online chess game helps them to
inadvertently reduce their attention deficiencies. They are able to focus
better on the task at hand and are better able to finish what they are doing
than jumping to the next thing that grabs their fancy. This ability to resist
external provocations further helps the kid to improve his or her concentration
levels.
Helps improve their memory
Research has
shown that chess helps players to improve their memory. This is truer for
children who are in their growing up years. The thinking that goes into a chess
game help develop stronger neural connections that lead to the development of a
sharper and more intelligent mind. And since these are the growing up years,
the child is able to become more intelligent by playing the game.
Increases patience and fortitude
Patience and
fortitude are key essentials to solve any problem. Children who subscribe to
online chess classes are able to play the game patiently. They are able to
devise plans for attack and defense and sometimes see that all their best plans
do not result in a win. In addition to making them humble, it also teaches them
patience as they realize they could have won if they had planned and adapted
better, and seen their strategies through to the end.
Enhances problem solving skills one notch at a time
Online chess
classes involve various levels of gameplays from beginner to expert. Your
children learn the lessons at their expertise level and go on to the next
levels. This incremental learning process helps improve their problem solving
abilities as they learn to resolve all types of problems across all levels of
difficulty.
