Chess teaches several important cognitive skills, such as concentration, planning, and serial reasoning. So it it a good game to teach a child.

chess also has a very rich history. So, even if you do not try to master the game, you can enjoy its history and art. You can play through the games of world champions from the 1800s. Nothing like that is available for sports such as baseball and football.

Chess is like going to the gym for your brain—but only if you use it that way. If you enjoy it, even just for fun, it’s not a waste. But if you’re not getting value from it anymore, it’s okay to take a break or quit.
