Debate Mom Posted July 12, 2016 Share Posted July 12, 2016 I am looking for a typing program for my 3rd and 5th graders. I would like a cd/dvd that I can install so that we don't need to visit a website. Any suggestions? Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MinivanMom Posted July 12, 2016 Share Posted July 12, 2016 We use Mavis Beacon Teaches Typing. It's very cheap and you just install it on your computer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amateur Actress Posted July 12, 2016 Share Posted July 12, 2016 I second Mavis Beacon. My kids liked it. You can set up separate accounts for each child. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tracy Posted July 12, 2016 Share Posted July 12, 2016 We also used Typing Instructor for Kids. It is fun and engaging. And cheap. Gotta like cheap. :seeya: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jess4879 Posted July 12, 2016 Share Posted July 12, 2016 We have Typing Instructor for Kids Platinum. We've used it for two years now and I am ditching it for Mavis Beacon. I want the kids to have fun and enjoy it, but I'm seriously over all the edutainment stuff. Maybe it's just me and I'm in a mood, but I am sick of having to extend every lesson by 10 minutes so my kids can go to the "store" and spend their points. *sigh* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
