HushTots
Go on a listening walk! HushTots gives your littlest learner a picture card of sounds you might hear at the park, on the street, or at home — a bird singing, a bus, a ticking clock — and they tap each one when they hear it. The phone never listens and records nothing: your child's ears do the work. Back home, play "which is louder?" with everyday sounds. Everything is said aloud (no reading needed) and there is no way to lose. On-device, no account. Ages 3-5.
▶ Play it nowScreen-light: about 5 minutes on the screen. Most of the play happens off it, with real things and real people.
Meet your mentor
Every Spark & Anvil app has a friendly mentor character that demonstrates, asks, and patiently scaffolds learning.

Meet the cast
HushTots' listening friends each embody one move of ATTENTIVE LISTENING - the crew IS the idea (audio-first for ages 3-5). Hushabee keeps very still so the quiet sounds can be heard. Perkear pricks up big ears and points. Boomba knows the loud sounds. Mentor Whooley the owl asks "what was the quietest thing you heard?" The phone never listens or records - the child's ears do.
