⌨️ Typing 🧒 Ages 7–15 🇦🇺 Years 2–9 🎚️ 3 levels

🎈 Falling Words

Words float down the screen – type each one before it lands. The game speeds up the longer you survive.

How to play

Type any falling word to pop it – the letters you have typed so far are highlighted in green. You have three lives; a word that reaches the grass costs a life. Words fall faster and more often as time goes on.

⌨️ Keyboard: just type. On a tablet, tap the game first to bring up the on-screen keyboard.

What it teaches

Fast, accurate typing of whole words builds automaticity, so students can focus on ideas rather than keys when they write. The game rewards accuracy because a typo means retyping the word.

Levels: Short words (3–4 letters, slow) · Medium words (4–6 letters) · Long words (6–8 letters, faster)

Free to play, with no sign-up and no ads beside the game. Best scores are saved only in this browser. All artwork and sounds are made in code by makekite.
