Chess set:Chess Teacher

One of a group of toys and games in this donation from a Rochester family, this example demonstrates the kind of educational or intelligence-challenging toys favored by these children and their parents. From a card game "Mensa for Kids" to the "Tensegritoy" construction set-based on the scientific concept of tensegrity-these playthings are generally intended to expand children's skills, broaden thought patterns, and enhance concepts such as mathematics, science, and verbal ability. This donation includes puzzles, games and toys.

This basic chess set is intended to provide beginners with a thorough understanding the game, ranging from names of pieces to advanced strategies and tactics.
