Fast Chess

  • From your adult account click 'Play' on the menu at the top of the page and select 'Play vs Kid'

  • Click on the Friends tab resembling a person

    • Your kid must also be logged in, online, and in the Fast Chess area at the same time as you are for you to see them on the list.

    • Alternatively, you can search for your child by entering their ChessKid username into the search box at the bottom and clicking the magnifying glass.

  • Click on the icon of a hand holding a chess piece to send them a challenge!


Slow Chess

  • From your adult account click 'Play' on the menu at the top of the page and select 'Slow Chess'

  • On this new page, use the drop-down menu under 'Play' to select the type of game or a specific opening you want to play. You can also check the 'Unrated' box to make the game unrated so it doesn't affect the rating:

  • Click on the Friends tab to see a list of your friends, including your Kids

  • Select which of your kids you'd like to play and click 'Play' to send them a challenge!
