There are other ways to give her a chance to win without the fun levels 1)to play with the program when the program play without the queen in the in initial position. 2)to play with the program when she has the right to go back if she does a mistake(I think this is better because she can learn from her mistakes by this when she cannot learn from mistakes when the program gives away pieces).
