This is a letter typing practice suitable for young children who are learning about the alphabet, or beginning to learn keyboard typing. We also have a sister game for older kids.
Type the letters which appear on each rocket. Letters are not case sensitive.
Initially rockets come slowly, though they come more frequently as you progress through the game.
If this game is too slow for you play Typing Rocket instead.

Jr Typing Rocket Letter Typing Game for Kids Game Play Instructions
How to Play
Type each letter which appears on a rocket before that rocket makes it to the top edge of the screen.
Starting the Game
Click on the green and white button on the game’s loading screen to bring up the welcome screen.
Click the start button in the lower right corner of the game’s welcome screen.
Click on the red and orange button in the center of the instruction screen to start the game.
Game Controls
Desktop
Use your keyboard to type the letters on the rocket to make them explode.
Touchscreen devices
An on-screen keyboard shows at the bottom of the screen. It is, however, quite tiny, making it easy to click the wrong letters, particularly if you have larger hands. It also makes the remaining viewable portion of the screen smaller than on desktop, which gives players less time to type in the correct answer before the rocket moves offscreen.
Game Play
Scoring points
Each rocket has a letter on it.
You are given 3 minutes to type as many correct letters as you can.
Your score is shown in the upper left corner of the game.
The upper right corner of the game shows your remaining time and offers a pause button.
A perfect score is above 70.
Rocket speed & frequency
For the first minute letters come one at a time with a few seconds in between each.
In the second minute you start to get a couple rockets at a time.
In the third minute you get up to three rockets at a time.
Rockets move in varying speeds.
You can type the letters on the rockets in any order.
Letters are not case sensitive.
Incorrect answers
If you get an incorrect answer the game makes a sound, but it does not subtract any points from your score.
At the end of the game it shows how many correct answers and misses you got.
Target Audience
The game is suited for young children learning to type on a keyboard. We also offer the Typing Rocket game for kids who are a bit older or more experienced with a keyboard.
The game has no adult content.
