Help me choose a path
This is just a friendly suggestion, not a test — you (or a parent) can pick any path, and switch later any time.
- Early Explorers is a good fit if the keyboard is brand new, or typing full sentences still feels tricky.
- Skill Builders is a good fit if letters are familiar, but finger placement and full sentences aren't comfortable yet.
- Typing Champions is a good fit for confident typists ready for punctuation, numbers, and building speed.
