Touch typing tutor for OS 9?

Hello there,

Perhaps this isn't the right board for this question, but here goes anyway!

I'm looking for a child-friendly, freeware touch-typing tutor program that I can install on 6 iBooks I want to use with my class... Does anyone know of such a piece of software?

Thanks very much in advance...

Steve

iBook G3, Mac OS 9.1.x

Hi, Steve. You might try Googling "Mac typing teacher". I just found several programs that way. None of the ones I looked at was free, but I didn't look far.

It takes a lot of testing to design a typing tutor that really works, especially for kids, so I wouldn't be surprised if it were hard to find a good one that doesn't cost anything.

I remember using this a long time ago. It was fun and child friendly; it has typing games.

I don't remember if I used this version, but this one says it works with 9.1. Pretty close to being free...
