Kings Activity
Players each start with one king on its normal starting square. They play a race: using only legal king moves, each player tries to guide their king to the opposite edge of the board. Kings must never stand on touching squares, which creates funny moments when players discover opposition on their own.
Pawns Activity
Each player sets up eight pawns on their usual starting rank. Using standard pawn movement and captures, they race to be the first to get a pawn to the far edge of the board. The activity uses basic pawn rules only — en passant is saved for later.
