Hi!!

I thought I'd introduce myself :)

I'm Cristina, a graphic designer specialized in visual accessibility. I believe design should be for everyone, without barriers.

I'm also the mother of two amazing daughters, and a teacher. I give children classes in art, English (i am living in Spain), calligraphy, writing, and watercolor painting. I love watching how art and movement spark curiosity and connection.

What drives everything I do are clear values: helping people, caring for the Earth, and finding paths that make us more human and more aware.

Lately, I've been diving into neuroscience especially how small, intentional movements can improve focus, memory, and mental clarity. I'm fascinated by the connection between fine motor skills, bilateral stimulation, and the brain's ability to regulate attention.

I also have a growing concern about how AI is interfering with cognitive development, especially in children, and I believe we need to return to the tangible, the manual, and real connection.

I'm here on Reddit sharing what I'm learning and trying out. I'd love to connect with other women who are building meaningful projects, whether you want to share what you're working on, ask a question, or just say hi.

Feel free to reach out anytime. 💙

Hi everyone,

I'd like to introduce touch typing to my two daughters (9 and 13). They're both at an age where they'll need to type more for school assignments, and I want to set them up with good habits from the start.

I'm looking for:

• Free online resources or websites (preferably ad-free or kid-friendly)
• Any tips on how to structure practice — how many minutes a day? How many weeks/months until they get comfortable?
• Experiences from other parents or teachers — what worked for you? What didn't?

I'm not looking for them to become speed demons, just to build a solid foundation and proper finger placement so they don't develop bad habits.

Thanks in advance for any recommendations! 🙏
