This is a deceptively simple activity with the potential to secure impressive gains in spelling, number and keyboard skills across the curriculum. Keyboard Crazy offers a range of multi-sensory activities which require the use of kinaesthetic, visual and auditory skills for successful completion.

These multi-sensory tasks accelerate learning and create the "buzz" that always seems to occur when Keyboard Crazy is in use.

The biggest drawback is that teachers probably need to see it in use for a true appreciation of the effectiveness in terms of improved performance and motivation.

While the base of evidence to support the effectiveness of Keyboard Crazy is growing steadily, the best endorsement comes from learners who are enthusiastically engaged by the stimulating nature of the activities and the obvious progress they make. Why is it effective? Quite simply, because it seems to teach children the way they prefer to learn.
