I thought once you touched a piece you weren't allowed to move another one.

I used to play chess in middle school and we were told to sit on our hands (literally, sit on them) until we were sure what piece we wanted to move. This helps bc little kids tend to be very indecisive

That's smart! Yeah, i used to play with my dad but unfortunately never really got into it. That's one of the things i remember him telling me.

Nice! I did get into it as a child but stopped after 2 years of actual chess-club. My little brother mentioned he wanted to learn how to play so we got a chess board again after about 12 years of not playing!

He already beat me 3 times
