Echo for Ages 2-4

Watch, listen, then repeat it back.

Echo lights up a sequence of coloured pads with a tone for each one, then asks the child to tap them back in the same order. Every round the sequence gets one step longer. It is a pure working-memory game, and one of the few here that a child and an adult can genuinely compete at.

The 2-4 level uses four extra-large pads, starts at two steps, and plays back slowly with a long gap between lights so there is time to take each one in.

What it teaches

• Working memory and sequence recall
• Sustained attention
• Listening and pattern recognition
• Impulse control, waiting for the sequence to finish

How to play

1. Watch and listen as the pads light up in order.
2. Wait until the whole sequence has finished.
3. Tap the pads back in exactly the same order.
4. Each round adds one more step to remember.
