3. Problem-solving skills: Chess is a game of problem-solving, as players must analyze the board and come up with a plan to outsmart their opponent. This can help children develop their problem-solving skills and learn how to approach challenges in a strategic way.
4. Patience and perseverance: Chess can be a challenging game that requires patience and perseverance to improve and succeed. This can help children learn the value of persistence and hard work in order to achieve their goals.
