For more than 15 years, NYChessKids has been teaching thousands of students how to play chess. Their most important goal is for the children to have a great future and attend the best schools in the country. NYChessKids is dedicated to improving academic excellence by encouraging and training students to become problem solvers, critical thinkers and admirable leaders. One of the mainstays of NYChessKids is the Chess Camp. Additionally, they offer chess instruction to the newest, youngest beginners starting at (some as young as 3.5-4 years old), to slightly older beginners and intermediate players, to advanced players. During their breaks in camp, students can watch movies, play video games, play more chess/bughouse or do physical exercises in the gym. The goal of the camp is to foster an environment of learning and fun so that students are happy before and after the day. Currently, camps are held at P.S. 116 (The Mary Lindley School) and P.S. 163 (Alfred E. Smith School). The facilities are amazing and can accommodate many children.
