When I was young, my parents sat me down at the meetings with a pencil and paper. I was too young to take notes, but they had something else in mind. They wanted me to count how many times I heard certain words said. Simple enough, and a fun game. Now, so many of the young ones are used to using devices. Some even through the meeting. How can we bridge the listening gap? This app was based on the concept of that little listening game I had as a child. You might have used something for your children, or it may have been what your parents used for you. Simply select the language you speak, adjust the upper limit of the counter, and the game is ready for your child. You even have options to randomize the words that appear in the buttons. This game is not meant for those who can already pay good attention at meetings or during the broadcast, it is intended as a segway for those currently playing video games during spiritual activities to start to focus on what is being said rather than the game. Hopefully in a short time, this game will have served its' purpose, and your child will not need it anymore! Enjoy playing attention!
