# '''''Intuitive''''' They have to learn alphabets anyway and most children are taught by making them recite the alphabets in order and showing corresponding symbols.They learn how to say 'open' (in their respective languages) first before knowing where to point the mouse and where to click. This can be of assistance for children who are physically challenged in some way.

# '''''Versatile''''' ("I have a EN-US keyboard but I want to learn English because its my first language in school, Hindi because its my second language, I also want learn Telugu because its my mother tongue and Tamil because my mom lived all her childhood in Tamil Nadu and wants me to learn what was her primary language too! I am a kid so remembering the key mappings of all these languages in SCIM is tough for me?")

# '''''Fun''''' Talking to the computer is a lot more fun than typing. Also collective classroom learning can be enhanced with this application by introducing classroom Spelling Bee contests. Children tend to remember things faster if they have a story attached to them. ( I'll remember the spelling of the word that I could not answer and came second because of it. My teacher explained the meaning of this word when none of us could spell it correctly and made us say it out 5 times in class.)

And fun is an important criteria when it comes to what children like and what they use more.
