I have allowed the girls to start a touch typing program, since they are both in middle school, and Natalie just reminded me that "Typing Viking" would go with this day's theme! She loves Ten Thumbs (the actual name of the program) and so does Leah. We have two days left in our introductory trial period. I've been quite pleased with it: Ten Thumbs Typing Tutor.
