For parents and teachers

Children’s typing speed grows with age and practice, so compare a child with their own earlier scores rather than with adults. Accuracy matters most early on. Encourage them to keep their eyes on the screen and their fingers on the home row, and speed will follow.

Short daily sessions of 10 to 15 minutes beat one long session a week. The home row drill is a good first lesson, and the typing game keeps practice fun. No account is needed, and results stay on this device.

Frequently asked questions

What is a good typing speed for a child?

It depends heavily on age and how long they have practised. Younger children often start in the single digits or teens; by the early teens many reach 25 to 35 WPM. Improvement over time is the best measure.

At what age should kids learn to type?

Many schools introduce keyboarding around ages 7 to 9, once hands are big enough to rest on the home row comfortably.
