Jump Start Typing

My kids played some of the games.

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 son adores this CD Rom! I thought he would be bored by it easily, but he loved it and wanted to keep playing past time when home school ended. He is only 7 but he thought it was so fun and really felt motivated to keep going to the next level and get faster and less mistakes. He is already typing 18 wpm! Much better than I was when I began learning!I highly recommend this program for anyone, any age. My 12 year old will be learing to type properly next. The shipping was fast and everything arrived as expected!

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.

Bought for my granddaughter she liked it.

This CD typing game is just like the old one :) Im so glad that the company made one compatible to the computer systems of this time period. I used to play this CD when I was around 9. Now my 6 and 7 yr old brother and sister plays it too :) we even found the old one! The newer one has a different opening screen and starts up a little faster. But, everything else is the same! For first timers, dont fret about the first timed test. It is actually better to type a little slower so that the goals are not set so high that your child/you is/are unable to achieve them.

My ten-year old hated this program. The games were extremely juvenile and very boring. . . maybe would have been kind of fun at school in 1986 because it looked like something someone designed in 1986. I had to FORCE my millennial child to play this. I tried it a couple days in and realized it is actually really really bad. Additionally, the cd never really went over where to put your fingers. My son was still two finger typing. The whole point of purchasing this thing was to teach him to type. Now I am out $9 and my son is now very resistant to learning to type because he associates it with this horrible cd. Id say were worse off then before I purchased it.

This was an old program and not even compatible with my older Windows 7 PC

Fun program for kids 5-9 especially boys, Mine thought it was just as fun as any DS game. And it did help them to learn the keyboarding positions and speed up on their keyboarding skills.
