at preschool we have a few “real” toys as they call them: a cash register, an alarm clock with the flip down numbers, a rotary phone, and this keyboard.
i’ll never forget the day last year when i found the keyboard seemingly undisturbed, but upon closer look: all the keys were in different places, turned around, upside down, etc.
talk about a fine motor work out!
(i thought his would be a fitting post after almost a week of my internet being hit or miss. things seem to be better now…that in itself is a mystery. so hopefully i can catch up a bit in this space!)

We’ve used a keyboard in our classroom from time to time; they love it. I also brought in an old laptop and they could “really type.” That was a BIG hit.

I never thought of letting kids go to town with an old computer keyboard. I am totally going to buy one when I go to the thrift store next time. My little guy is always trying to get to my laptop keys, and I think he ate my #7 key. So thanks for the perfect solution!!

I love it! My daughter is obsessed with the keyboard to our old computer. At 17 months she points to all the letters and says “B!”
