Sit tall, keep wrists straight, and rest your eyes and hands in short breaks.
A seat that works: your back is tall but not stiff, and your feet are flat on the floor or flat on a box.
Bend your elbows like the letter L, with the screen about an arm away. Let your shoulders sit loose and low.
Keep your wrists straight, like a little bridge, and let your hands hover just over the keys with your fingers curved.
Type a little, look away, stretch, then type again. If anything ever feels sore, stop and tell a grown-up.
These are some of the questions on the sets. The printable sheets have more and an answer key.
Flat on the floor or on a box. Swinging feet are worth changing.
Straight, like a little bridge. Bent wrists pressed on the desk edge are worth changing.
Look at something far away. Close screen staring does not rest them.
Stop and tell a grown-up. Never keep going.
With a grown-up, set up your seat at the keyboard: feet flat on the floor or a box, back tall, wrists straight and the screen about an arm away. After each short bit of typing, plan a look out of the window and a stretch.
Sit beside your child and help set up the seat: feet flat, back tall, wrists straight and the screen about an arm away; then agree a short look-away and stretch after each short burst of typing.
