5.0 out of 5 stars All three sons love it, September 30, 2008

By	Jane D. Kim "Jane Kim" - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

My eight year old son liked this SW so much - he wanted me to write a review. All three of our sons (twin 8s and 10 years old) are learning to type fast...

5.0 out of 5 stars amazing results!, January 5, 2009

By	Jon K. Uhler - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

We have been using this item for our three children for our school at home and have been amazed at the results! All of our kids have learned how to type in a very short period of time - a week! Because the work is "fun," the kids want to do it and enjoy the success of being able to type. It still needs some oversite from a parent, but it is very minimal and simple. I would recommend this product highly. p.s. we have also tried Mavis Beacon and don't like this program very much in comparison to Typing Instructor.

4.0 out of 5 stars nice software, December 28, 2008

By	B. Altman (Baltimore, MD) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Kids went wild over it initially (8 y.o. and 5 y.o.) but got bored and tossed it to the side after about a week. My son though tries to type with his hands on the home keys now at least. Could be they will pick up using it again some time in the future. I couldn't figure out how to change users after one was already selected, so when changing I was forced to exit the program and reload.
