Jump Start Typing

My little guy is only 6 and most typing programs out there were just too advanced for him. Now he loves this one. Easy to use and he is learning tons from it.

I use this is my classroom as a center for my Kindergarteners thru 2nd graders. They love this and are learning to be successful typist.

Just as the title says... I was very disappointed to find that these are the same graphics and games that I grew up on! my niece enjoys the game, but really why is this still being sold for more than a $1??

My kids played some of the games.

Im giving it 1 star because it does not work. it will start up but when I push play it shuts down.

I bought this for my son to practice with during summer break from school. He enjoyed using it and getting to feel as if he was playing a game while he was learning...good buy!

Great product if it worked on xp and Vista computers like it claims but nothing xp or newer can really play it with any kind of quality its just too old in format

This tutorial is fun for me and my grandchildren and would spend time with it even if I didnt want to improve my typing skills to using at least four fingers. Thank you.

As the title reads it is not compatible with modern hardware. I have ran this program on 2 different computers with all different hardware. My Win XP Proff machine and my Win Vista machine. Both yield random crashing and yes I know to run as admin and Ive tried so many other things.

First of all, let me start by saying that we are members of the jumpstart website which offers great education games. The graphics are amazing on this website. This game however, was written a while ago and the graphics are very old school. My eight year old will practice her typing but only if prompted because she just isnt into it as much as she is on the website. Too bad the website doesnt offer typing! This game encourages proper hand placement and basic keyboarding skills but the games are a bit repetitive and the reward levels dont offer much incentives.
