Because typing is penmanship for the 21st century! 🚀

Type Rocket on Kidztype.com

This week’s digital gem is a typing game called Type Rocket on the website KidzType.com. It’s all about building typing accuracy and speed, so kids should already know basic finger placement before you let them launch these rockets. If they don’t, shoo them over to DanceMatTyping (a previous gem) to get finger placement before blasting off.

The mission? Pop rockets by typing the letters that appear on them before they zoom off the screen. Each successful hit sets off a burst of fireworks, and with three levels of difficulty, kids can keep challenging themselves as their skills grow.

Because this is a free website, they’ll run into a few pesky pop-up ads – so younger players may need help to recognize the button ‘close’ at first. But that minor nuisance is worth it for the thrilling boost in typing speed and accuracy they’ll gain while playing.

Add this gem to their Aneta homerooms and enjoy your coffee while their little fingers do the flying.

This is screen time you can truly feel good about. 🚀✨
