The Crayola USB EZ Type Keyboard is a keyboard for very young
children; it has bright colors and large keys. There are no function
keys to cause issues by being pushed in error. The sheer size of
the keys and the way the keyboard is set up make this keyboard
less than ideal for anyone learning to touch type, but it functions
very well for the intended age group. The little ones can identify
the letters and push the button, and that's the main function of
it.
We like to teach our children early about the computer, and they
also start learning their letters early. There are lots of really
nice games and software out there for infants and toddlers, and
this keyboard makes them even more user friendly. This keyboard
retails for around $25 and at that price is well worth the investment
if little ones are going to learn to use the computer. I recommend
this product to parents of preschoolers who are interested in allowing
their children to be more independent in their use of the computer
for learning purposes.
