Think Like A King® was designed from the ground up to be about more than just chess. Don’t tell your kids, but the secret is that it will help them learn the thinking skills they need to be successful in school—and in life!
The Chess Workouts™ will certainly help kids learn chess. But at the same time, they help build reading, vocabulary and critical thinking skills – all while being highly engaging. Audio narration, included in the first three Chess Workouts, means that even early readers get the full benefit from these great learning tools.
As they go through these unique tutorials, children don’t just learn chess, they learn to Think Like A King for the rest of their lives. To learn more about the learning science behind our approach, click on the ‘Chess & Learning Science’ and ‘Educational Chess vs. Scholastic Chess’ photos below.
“Think Like A King had the highest quality instructional content of any chess software we have seen. The clarity of the language and the logical progression of the lessons is exceptional.”
Unlike most other online chess systems, we’ve built ours with the whole family in mind. Parents can follow each child’s learning progress and club activities – and even get free access to the whole curriculum for themselves, so chess can be a true family activity. Make chess a perfect way for everyone to bond – over great thinking!
Parents use their own ‘Family Page’ to see each child’s progress through the system. If your child is a member of a chess club that uses the system, you see any messages or learning assignments the coach may send. And when your kids (or their chess club!) subscribes to the Chess Workouts you get access to them for FREE – so you can keep up with your kids in chess! A perfect opportunity for bonding, togetherness, and being the role model that shows your kids how important great thinking skills are!

Students are rewarded with ‘Workout Points’ for each page they do in each Chess Workout tutorial, learning their way up our Thinking Belts ladder until they’ve achieved a Black Belt – in Thinking! The system lets coaches, parents, and students see all learning progress online – a critical part of motivating every student for learning effort independent of competitive chess skills!
The Workouts are like having a private chess coach available anytime, anywhere ready to explain even the most complex ideas in a simple and engaging format. In fact, these may be the first chess ‘books’ that most kids read ‘cover to cover’.
(And our first three volumes now have full audio narration, so even early readers have full access to learning!)
