I’ve heard about Levelty and I’m wondering if anyone has experience using it to help kids become better listeners. What kind of activities or features does it have that might be good for this? Looking for some practical tips on how to use it effectively with children. Thanks!
I’ve been using Levelty with my kids for a while now, and it’s been helpful for improving their listening skills. One thing that worked well was setting up tasks in the app for following instructions. For example, I’d create a task like ‘Put away toys when asked the first time.’ When they completed it, they earned points.
My youngest struggled with this at first, but seeing the points add up motivated him. We also used the app to track how many times they listened without being reminded. It became a little game for them to see how high they could get their streak.
The rewards system in Levelty was great for this too. We set up special privileges they could earn by consistently listening well. It took some time, but we saw real improvement. Every kid is different though, so you might need to experiment to find what works best for yours.
I’ve found Levelty helpful for my 11-year-old’s listening skills. We created a ‘Super Listener’ challenge with tasks like ‘Follow a three-step instruction’ or ‘Summarize a short story.’ The app’s point system made it feel like a fun game rather than a chore.
We also use it to track ‘listening streaks’ - how many days in a row she can complete her listening tasks. It’s been interesting to see her progress over time. The visual representation in the app seems to motivate her more than just verbal praise.
Every child is different though, so you might need to experiment with different tasks and rewards to find what clicks for your kids.
Levelty has been great for helping my kids with listening skills. We started small, with simple tasks like ‘Listen to a short story’ or ‘Follow a two-step instruction.’ The kids enjoyed seeing their points go up in the app.
We made it fun by setting up little challenges. Like who could remember the most details from a bedtime story. Or who could follow all the steps to make their bed without reminders.
The visual progress in the app really seemed to click with my 7-year-old. He gets excited to see his ‘listening streak’ grow each day. My 10-year-old loves picking out small rewards she can earn.
It took some trial and error to find what worked. But now listening has become more of a positive habit than a struggle. The key was keeping it light and celebrating the small wins along the way.
I’m curious about using Levelty for listening skills too. My 5-year-old sometimes struggles with this.
I’ve tried making listening into a game at home. We do ‘Simon Says’ or I give silly instructions to follow. It works sometimes, but not always.
Has anyone used Levelty’s task feature for listening practice? I wonder if setting up small, fun listening challenges could work. Maybe tasks like ‘Follow a 2-step instruction’ or ‘Listen to a short story and answer a question.’
What kind of rewards did you set up in the app that worked well? I’m still figuring out what motivates my kid best.
Levelty’s task feature worked well for us. I set up simple listening tasks with points. The kids liked seeing their progress. The app’s tracking helped show improvement over time. We used rewards for consistent good listening too.
