A letter comes up on the road. Find it on the keyboard and press it. Choose all the letters, or one row at a time.
How to play
- Look at the lit tile. It shows one letter.
- Find that letter on the keyboard and press it. The same key is lit on the picture of the keyboard, and the hands show which finger reaches it.
- A wrong key waits. Nothing is lost. The game moves on when the right key is pressed.
- Find them all. One star for finishing, two for a nearly clean lap, three for every key right. There is no clock.
Four letter games
| Choice | Letters | A lap |
|---|---|---|
| All letters | A to Z | Each of the 26 letters once, in a mixed order |
| Home row | A S D F G H J K L | Each of the 9 letters twice |
| Top row | Q W E R T Y U I O P | Each of the 10 letters twice |
| Bottom row | Z X C V B N M | Each of the 7 letters twice |
The tiles show capital letters, the same as the picture of the keyboard under them. A child presses the plain key: there is no Shift to hold.
What kind of game this is
It is a matching game for the keyboard: see a letter, find the same letter on a key. It does not say a letter's name or its sound. A grown-up sitting beside a child can say each letter as it comes up.
