Touch typing is fun amd magic for kids. 9 more keys left out of 26 for my kid. I clearly see her developing muscle memory faster than I did myself.

Ditto with my daughter. I don't really know if this helps them get into programming but she now types faster than me with much better accuracy.

Mine noticed that I did not look at the keyboard and she did think it was very cool! I told her it was simply a matter of practice.
