I am teaching my older two children (6 and 4) how to play chess.  My four year old son is asking me to leave him a chess puzzle each day as I go to work.  Right now I am focusing on leaving him Mate in 1 puzzles.

Does anyone have a suggestion for where I can find a collection of these so I am not making them up every morning?

 Thanks,

Alan

"Chess" by Laszlo Polgar. This book starts with mate in 1, with hundreds of examples of mating patterns with mate in 1. Then it moves up to longer mates. There is a total of 5334 problems/games. This should keep your kids busy for a while. :-)
