Master the Mouse
In a tablet world this is one of the things I find the hardest to teach the Kindergartners! Some/Most of them have never seen a mouse or even know what they are. One of the most important pre-keyboarding skills is how to use the mouse. The sites below will help with the hand eye coordination and help them to use the mouse properly to navigate around the computer.

Keyboarding is an important skill for all students. When students develop keyboarding proficiency, it becomes an aid to the improvement of their writing skills. It is recommended that all students begin to learn correct placement of fingers on the keyboard as soon as they begin to use the computer.
