Checkers, a screen from the game

What your child learns

  • Thinking a few moves ahead
  • Spotting forced jumps and double jumps
  • Planning to reach the far side and crown a king

How to play

Tap a piece: where it can go is marked, tap there. Jumps are a must, and a double jump is tapped landing by landing. A piece on the far row is crowned. Taking every piece, or leaving the other side no move, wins.

Levels

  1. Level 16 × 6 board, easy Owlie.
  2. Level 28 × 8, Owlie thinks 3 moves ahead.
  3. Level 38 × 8, Owlie thinks 5 moves ahead.

A tip for parents

Play a game as a friend on the same screen: children love beating a grown-up, and it’s a good lesson in losing well too.
