Chess Sets Considered To Be Best Gifts For Grandchildren

GrowUpSmart, an educational toys and games company, has recently completed a survey of customers and it was revealed that their Smart Tactics Chess Set Premium Edition has proven to be popular among grandparents who are looking for a gift for their grandchildren. These grandparents have particularly bought the chess set on Amazon.

Martin Reinhold, founder of GrowUpSmart, says: "We have specifically tried to make our chess sets as gift friendly as possible and the Premium Edition is the top of the line with its nice velvet chess bag and extra chess pieces. Our chess sets in general and the Premium Edition in particular stand out from the run-of-the-mill chess sets out there with their engraved algebraic notations, velvet interior and straps for holding the chess pieces, larger size compared to many chess sets in the same price range, and the online video chess course included with every game."

The chess set comes as a beautiful 16" board with a velvet lined compartment for the chess pieces. It conveniently folds away for storage. Along the top edge of the board, there are elegant algebraic notations for quick and easy identification of the different game moves. The high quality wooden board is made from FSC certified, New Zealand pine, and has a basswood and walnut veneer top.

Various grandparents have left positive reviews for the chessboard, citing that they have been unhappy with many other products and so pleased to have found this particular model. "...it is a sturdy set made with good quality and meets all my needs. I was impressed that it even had spare pieces in case the kids lost one..." says T. Thomas on Amazon. T. Fleming says, "I bought this set to take on a fishing trip with sons who like to play. It is certainly a very good value for the money..."

GrowUpSmart is particularly happy with their addition of extra pieces, with a spare of each piece being included. This is one of the main reasons why grandparents have been particularly impressed with the set, as children have a tendency to lose pieces.
