Make typing practice fun
Children learn fastest in short, happy sessions. Keep each practice to 10-15 minutes, celebrate small wins (a new badge, a better accuracy score) and never compare with other children.
The most important habit is correct finger placement from day one. Show children the home row and let them follow the glowing keys in the lessons.
Tips for parents and teachers
- Accuracy first: aim for 90% before talking about speed.
- Use the coloured keyboard in the lessons - each colour is one finger.
- Practise a little every day; the streak counter motivates children.
- Typical goals: 10-15 WPM at age 7-8, 20-30 WPM by age 10-12.
- Teachers can create a free classroom and see every student's results.
