About this product
This wooden set brings chess and draughts together in one box. Two timeless strategy games let children plan their moves and think ahead. They will capture pieces, protect their king or clear the board of opponent draughts. Each game teaches patience and forward thinking through play. The wooden design feels solid in young hands and lasts through countless matches. Perfect for siblings, friends or family game nights at home.
The board flips between chess and draughts for instant variety. Both games support two or more players for flexible group play. Strategy builds naturally as children learn to anticipate and plan several moves ahead. Concentration deepens with every match played together. Suitable for ages 2 years and over with adult supervision required. Not suitable for children under 3 years old due to small parts. This classic set encourages critical thinking while keeping children engaged round after round.

Great quality chess board. The finish is smooth, the pieces feel solid, and it looks even better in person. Very happy with my purchase. The only downside is that it’s not foldable
