Typing Master puts engaging keyboarding courses within reach with TypeTastic and TypeTastic School Edition, which have helped more than 2 million children kick-start their typing education. The company, founded in 1992, provides more than 700 fun and inspiring activities that empower users to build essential skills for a tech-based world. With exciting upcoming collaborations and plans for bilingual support, TypeTastic is poised to help an even greater population of students excel for decades to come.

Guidelines specifying developmental readiness for typing lessons don’t yet exist, but many consider it appropriate to introduce these skills in kindergarten when young hands fit comfortably on a keyboard.

And since many schools aren’t teaching kids to type as part of a standard curriculum, a growing number of teachers and parents are turning to third-party tools — such as Typing Master’s TypeTastic and TypeTastic School Edition — to get the job done.
