My son and husband are determined to teach me how to play chess this year. I suspect we may need to get a second set that looks a little more traditional because I keep forgetting that Luigi is the queen until he takes all my pieces.

My son is going through a major Mario phase so my aunt & uncle have gotten him Mario versions of several classic board games (which I now need to convince him to actually play with me). He specifically asked for the chess set and I figured it would be really cute to have but it's so much fun to watch him play against my husband. It's the same rules as basic chess; I just struggle to remember which character is which piece. I'll get there eventually!
I had to make Mario's name red; I'm glad it looks cute and not weird in the title.
What a great mom that you allow your son to teach you something!!! That has to make him feel so important - especially if he is winning Love this layout so very much!

He's constantly teaching me new things in video games too. I think he has some regrets about teaching me how to beat him in Mario Kart but he'll probably always kick my butt at chess.
