I am currently writing a capstone position paper about the optimum age for a person to start learning chess. I have come to the conclusion that the optimum age is 5-6. I need help brainstorming reasons though. So far I have: 1  Most grandmasters learn chess at this age. 2  Children's brains are like sponges at this age.
It's completely impossible to actually teach her chess at this age though. So the answer to the question can only be it depends entirely on the child. Whenever the kid becomes interested in learning chess is the best age. (that said, if they taught the rules of chess at school right now, she'd probably soak them up.
