Cool chess video: Detective Cookie teaching chess, life lessons to kids

Chess blog for latest chess news and chess trivia (c) Alexandra Kosteniuk, 2011


Hi everyone,


Here's a nice video. Seattle Police detective is making a difference in children's' lives in a way she never thought -- through chess. Her students call her Detective Cookie, a name she earned years ago for her love of sweets, but Detective Denise Bouldin has figured out the way to teach kids in the Rainier Valley about life through the movements of the pieces on a chess board.
