    5 out of 5 stars Fantastic   January 6, 2009
    Angela Petree (Craig, Colorado)
    I bought this for my 7 year old and he loves it. We use it for homeschooling and when we move on to something else he doesn't want to stop typing. I recommend this highly. It has games that make it fun and then it has a practice mode that has Spongebob's hands over the keyboard so your child can learn the homekeys.


    4 out of 5 stars Awesome!   January 3, 2009

    I bought this for my 7 yr old son. He loves the computer and he's a huge Spongebob fan. He immediately took an interest in the game. His typing noticeably improved after just an hour or two of playing the game.

    There are two things that I dislike about the game. First, it has a lot of advanced activities that require some serious typing experience. However, there is enough low-level stuff to keep my son entertained. Second, it does not do enough to teach the proper hand positions. But it has helped my son better navigate the keyboard.

    Overall, I'd recommend it.

    I bought this product for my 9 year old. With all the video games out there I needed something that would keep his attention and teach typing at the same time. After reading other reviews I bought this product and my 9 year old loves it. I watched him play/practice and he's already improving. He'll even choose this over other video games. If your child likes SpongeBob and needs to learn typing this is a perfect product.

    This is a fun way for children to become familiar with the keyboard. It is a great product!
