Kit

HOME KEY (K)

Kit on the K Key

Beside Jay on the right hand lives Kit, a quick little key-friend on the K key. Kit is home for your right middle finger — the tallest finger on your right hand.

Kit’s job matches all the others: your right middle finger rests on K, and comes right back home to K after every letter.

Can you find Kit? Put your right middle finger on the K key, next to Jay on J. Your right hand is filling up with friends!

Say it with Kit: “Right middle finger, quick and neat — Kit on K can’t be beat.”

Jay and Kit, side by side, right pointer and right middle. Your right hand is learning its home, one friend at a time.

Reading together with a grown-up? A card for the grown-up

For the grown-up: ask one question, then wait. When they answer, add one word to what they said. Tap the button when they have said something — that is one turn each, a circle. Nothing is recorded or kept.

Let them finish it

Say “Right middle finger, quick and neat — Kit …” and stop. Let them finish it.

Then say the whole line together: “Right middle finger, quick and neat — Kit on K can't be beat.”.

Now wait. Count slowly to five in your head. Their answer is worth the quiet.

Circles together: 0
