How to teach your child to touch type?

DS doesn't learn at school, and has told me wants to.

I trawled the internet but didn't find anything that looked particularly good. I guess I'm looking for something interactive.

BBC website has very good free typing program for kids. My ds who is 7 has started it and it is working well for him. Here's the link. Also if you want something that works for both kids and adults, I found this program some years ago and it worked well for my dh and seems like it would be good for kids too. It's very reasonably priced and has a free test version too.

I think that in this day and age, it's silly that they don't teach it at school. My ds even has computer class, but they don't teach them typing!!
