Oh of course typing has its own advantages! It would be wise to utilize a combination especially in educational settings. Plus children should be taught how to type and utilize all sorts of tech.

I'm not a parent totally opposed to the use of laptops in school. And honestly, my kid's school does a pretty good job at balancing the tech with older school methods of learning. But it does no good to insist on transitioning kids into using tech only.
