## Pedagogical Philosophy: Movement-Based Early Childhood Chess
Young children have shorter attention spans and learn through sensory-motor interaction. Smart Moves transforms stationary chess concepts into active games:
1. Physical spatial recognition on floor grids.
2. Character storytelling (pawns march like ants, rooks roll like castles, knights jump like frogs).
3. 15-minute modular mini-games focusing on piece behaviors over winning.
