Ages 4–6Alphabet Rally — included in the Family plan on TotType
Alphabet Rally is a 60-second typing drill that teaches the alphabet keys. Your child types A through Z, over and over, racing the clock to see how many full alphabets they can complete. It’s a genuine first typing lesson disguised as a high-score game.

How to play Alphabet Rally
When the timer starts, type the letters in order — A, B, C… all the way to Z — then start again. Type as many complete alphabets as you can before 60 seconds run out, and try to beat your best score next time.
What your child learns
- The full alphabet in order
- Where every letter sits on the keyboard
- Typing speed and accuracy
- Goal-setting by beating a personal best
Why it works at this age
A sixty-second sprint through A to Z is the first typing drill that feels like a game, and doing it over and over is how the whole keyboard layout moves from searching to knowing. The timer gives a score to beat, which at four to six is exactly the right kind of motivation.
Tips for parents
- Start with one full alphabet as the goal, not a fast time.
- Celebrate the personal best; it is the child's own number.
- Two rallies a day beats ten in a row; hands and attention both tire.
