I made this basic website for my daughter (6) to learn how to move chess pieces. I wanted a simple game which didn't have all the rules, just how to get from A to B with a piece. Admittedly, as soon as I made this a friend pointed out https://lichess.org/learn which is really nice!

There are a bunch of settings you can tweak to set the difficulty etc. Anyway, maybe will be a fun (short) diversion.

    Excellent - I'm so happy to hear it :) Hope she likes it (always keen for feedback!). The lichess site is very nice once she wants to learn more.

    Thanks. It was fun making it, and I really wanted to show her that the internet/apps weren't just for consuming, that you can make something of your own too.

    Also, kid-friendly Easter eggs (like turning off the colours..)
