Disney's Adventures in Typing with Timon & Pumbaa

Product Description

Amazon.com Lion King favorites Timon and Pumbaa are featured throughout the interactive adventures, customized private lessons, and dozens of activities that progressively challenge varying skill levels. Review Designed for children as young as six, this keyboarding program features step-by-step tutorials that teach hand placement and key strokes. Children are encouraged to improve their speed and accuracy by playing five engaging games. In one game, for instance, kids type sentences to help Timon and Pumbaa negotiate a maze of tunnels to avoid hungry hyenas. In another game, they shoot bugs by typing the correct letters. Detailed records of progress are kept. The Lion King theme may be best for younger kids- but even adult testers found the program helpful in increasing typing speed and accuracy. The program will work well in both homes and schools.
