Typesy for Kids

Is Typesy suitable for kids?

Hi,

Yes. Let’s get your kids’ typing skills ready for the future. With Typesy, children don’t just learn to type, they learn while typing! Through daily practice, the kids will have access to lessons, exercises, and games to help them learn to touch type quickly and accurately.

Hello, @oliwiergay!

Yes, yes, yes! Kids are both the perfect age and the perfect demographic for Typesy.

Practicing good keyboarding skills is good for any age, but it is recommended to start no earlier than age 7 to allow for full development of the motor skills necessary. That being said, the older a child, the longer they have had to develop bad habits. It is advisable to first introduce structured keyboarding lessons before the middle school years. That way, kids have developed the literacy and motor function skills needed but have not yet had too much time to develop bad typing habits.

Typesy is a great program choice for kids. Most importantly, the program is designed to monitor each student’s progress and adapt to their skill level, so no learner will ever find themselves with lessons too easy or too difficult for them. Additionally, Typesy makes learning fun! Kids are engaged through a variety of gamified lessons in which they earn rewards, up their game status, and work towards custom goals. They can build their own avatars and practice typing through fun, interactive lessons.

Typesy is fantastic for kids and kids are perfect for Typesy!
