My children are 8 and 10. Is Typesy applicable for them?
Hi there,
Yes, Typesy is actually recommended to age 8 and above.

@jessfigueroa - your kids are at the perfect age!
With enough patience and practice, anyone of any age can learn to touch type. That being said, the older a student, the longer they have had to develop bad habits. Younger students will develop muscle memory skills quicker, but older students will be more comfortable with reading and writing, thus more able to spell correctly when typing. Because of these reasons, it us usually recommended to first introduce structured keyboarding lessons before the middle school years. That way, students have developed the literacy and motor function skills needed but have not yet had too much time to develop bad typing habits.
Good luck to your children!
