I have an 8yo, his current passion is football ⚽️, or playing in general (he cannot sit still, he always wants to play, non stop). He also likes reading comics, and he's ok at chess... I've recently shared about him here: #568538

My daughter's on pace to be very similar to your son. She's pretty much inexhaustible when it comes to playing, likes her picture heavy books, and is very interested in chess.

Nice. I recommend chess.com, a very good resource for chess players of all ages. I bought a yearly subscription for mine, and he learns there on his own, at his own pace.
