One account. Every kid.
Sign in once on the family computer. Each child clicks their name and types — no logging in and out, no per-kid accounts, ever.
One path. Own pace.
Forty-five lessons from the home row to full passages. No grade levels — learning is learning, and a six-year-old and a twelve-year-old both walk the same road at their own speed.
No games. Real joy.
No zombies, no lasers, no dopamine casino. A satisfying sound on every key, stars for mastery, and family records your kids will genuinely fight over.
The path
Forty-five lessons, one gentle road
No grade levels and no shortcuts — just seventeen stages that grow from a single row of keys into whole passages of Scripture. Here is the whole way, start to finish.
The home row and first reaches — where hands learn to stay still.

Lesson 12
hallelujah
Their first word of praise, typed in full.
Lesson 29
“Jesus wept.”
The first complete verse they can type start to finish.
Lesson 45
The Parable of the Sower
Graduation — the passage this whole course is named for.
“Behold, a farmer went out to sow.”
— Matthew 13:3 (WEB)
Every drill your children type is a real word, a real verse, a real story — from the first “Jesus wept.” they can complete to the Parable of the Sower at graduation. By the end they touch type, and they've been typing Scripture the whole way.
Questions
The things parents ask first
Which Bible translation do you use?
The World English Bible (WEB) — a public-domain translation in clear, modern English. Every verse your children type is real Scripture, quoted word for word.
Is it really free?
Yes — free while we grow. There is no card to enter and no trial clock. We may add optional family features later, but the typing course itself is free to use today.
What ages is it for?
One path, any age. A confident reader as young as six can begin, and the same road carries them through the teen years. There are no grade levels — everyone simply moves at their own pace.
How many kids can share one account?
As many as you like. One family login holds unlimited child profiles. Each child clicks their own name and types — no logging in and out, no separate accounts to manage.
Do kids need their own email?
No. We ask for a first name only, and we never collect children's data — no email, no ads, and no trackers on their screens. You, the parent, are the only account holder.
How long does it take to learn?
About ten to fifteen minutes a day is plenty. Most children are touch typing — hands on the keys, eyes on the screen — within eight to twelve weeks.
Typing is the first seed.
