give your kid access to magnus trainer which is available in ios and Android. magnus teaches all phases of the games. most importantly he teaches opening in structure and pattern which is easier to remember, explains the main idea of the opening and also gives sequence of opening moves whenever necessary. i have not completed his game highlights in recent years but i think they might be also interesting. i have completed his tactics course and i have learn new things in the form of x-rays and interference tactics. his lessons on pins is also good. he have also a foundation course in which he teaches importance of controlling centre, rook uses open files just to get to seventh rank and from there it attack the maximum amount of oponent pieces and pawn, teaches us how to control dark and light square, everything of which is covered in strategy lesson. Have a calculation lesson as well in which he teaches students how to think during a game and claims this can alone improve the skill level of chess player a lot. i personally have applied to it and i would give consent to it. it also have a collection of other world champion game. it also features a collection of games and that's the only things i didn't like about. Puzzle rush is better.
So, in a nutshell, if you want to know the mysteries of sicilian, french, Kings indian, nimzoindian, Danish gambit explained in simple language, you should definitely have look at it.
MR MARMAX33. This is addressed to you: A six year old should have fun playing chess. That is all that matters. Should you wish---and should he---wish to improve then simply learn chess notation and look for game-losing errors, such as a piece of his moves to an un safe square or his opponent takes a piece, but your son does not take back. Also the board is im portant for improvement. Many 1600-1700 do not know the board. Play a game with him. Teach him the names of the squares and then simply ask whether they are dark or light. It will improve his game, when he can correctly name the squares. You can even find free apps on line that do this. Hope that helps.
