  8. There can be 2 answers
    First H is playing chess with D (But if he is playing,then who is observing all this?)
    and
    Second
    H is Sitting ideally and watching everyone,What they all are doing?
    So that he has mentioned easily ,What all are doing
    So that I think second answer is more better than first one.

  9. H has to be the one giving information about what the other children are doing since "there are 9 children in the house, and only them..."

    H could be playing chess with D, but then in that case H could also be partaking in any of the other children's activities. (i.e. TV with B, cooking with C, radio with F or even bathing with E)

    As mentioned already D can play chess without any of the other children.
    Online chess, playing against a computer or playing against him/herself.
