Default How do I teach the word program to children?

You start by giving each child one of those fat round Crayolas (you know the
ones with the flat spot to keep it from rolling off the desk). From there
just use your imagination. If they are willing to learn and you are willing
to teach then some learning will inevitably take place.

Seriously, don't you think you need to provide a bit more detail about what
specifically you want to teach these children and a bit more about the
children. Like are they 5 or 15? You might start he

In my experience you let them experiment and, before long, they will know
things you never did.

The best thing you can teach them is to touch type. They will quickly work
out the rest for themselves.

Agreed. Children's natural curiosity and fearlessness will take them places
more cautious adults might fear to tread. I encourage all new Word users to
display full menus and toolbars and be diligent in exploring menus and
dialogs. You can't use a feature if you don't know it exists, and if you
have once discovered it, even if you have no present use for it, you will
likely remember it (even if you can't remember how to find it) when you do
need it.
