From the first move to real game play

Chippy's Draughts Learning App takes children from their very first move to real games:

40 story chapters with short lessons and practice on the board.
Five new puzzles every day.
Friendly computer opponents that grow with your child.
An analysis board that shows the strongest move and explains why, in proper draughts notation.
Five languages: English, Spanish, French, Portuguese and Dutch.

Free and safe for children

It is free for children, with no ads. Children play with a nickname only: no email, no chat and no account needed. It works in the browser on any phone, tablet or computer, can be added to the home screen like an app, and keeps working offline.

For coaches, clubs and schools

Set up a class, send puzzles as homework and follow your players' progress. Adult coaches can also take the free Coach Academy course, with lessons and practice questions.

Already play checkers? The game will feel familiar: same diagonal moves and captures, on a bigger 10×10 board with flying kings.
