Beginner to Chess Grandmaster - Learn how this Goan family helped their son Leon get there

Hi,my son is of 5 years. Is this the right time to put him in the chess classes. Or is it too early.

My daughters' are 12 and 8 years respectively . They want to learn chess. What are the steps I need to take . Also since nowadays physical classes are no longer taking place, will teaching them chess online be equally effective? Please guide.

My nephew 7years old,I tried to teach him how to play by introducing him to the names of the pieces and how each piece moved. Unfortunately, he couldn’t remember the names and couldn’t differentiate some of the pieces. he is not shown any interest on playing chess. What is the best way to teach a 7-year-old to play chess? Is this age appropriate, knowing that the child has some interest?

I have the same question about age please.
