 Good typing practice, 2008-01-09
I bought this as practice for my 8-year-old granddaughters who took typing in school this year. Have only had it a few days, but they are glued to it during their free computer time. It enourages touch-typing and accuracy.
We've found only one flaw. One of the girls pressed the back-arrow to see what would happen and she lost several chapters of the work she had completed. I'm not sure what caused the glitch -- expect it was operator error, but couldn't identify it.
They are having a lot of fun practicing, and they are improving speed and accuracy in a short time. I gave it 4 out of 5 stars because I think a children's program should make it difficult to wipe out completed work. If it weren't for that, I would give it 5 stars.

good for beginners, 2007-12-28
My 9 yr old son enjoyed it at first, seems like playing a game. He has now figured out that he is "learning" and it isn't as much fun. It does teach typing, but I wish there was more mandatory practice before moving on to the next group of letters and more emphasis on proper posture/sitting/finger position. Overall, I'm glad I purchased it and my son is learning how to type without hunting and pecking.
