CrushStations  helps kids practice and improve the following skills:

Working Memory: Recalling and retaining information in our minds while working.

In order to successfully complete each level with three stars, the player needs to remember what sea creatures are in which color bubbles. As the levels progress, the combinations of colors and sea creatures increase in complexity. The bubbles also become opaque at different stages, requiring the player to remember their contents and color longer. Players who struggle with Working Memory may find the later levels difficult but they will have plenty of time to practice in the earlier stages of the game. 

Focus: Getting started and then maintaining attention and effort to tasks. 

Without being able to focus, remembering the sea creature type and bubble color can be very difficult. The player needs to be able to pay attention to the types of sea creatures and the color bubbles they are hiding in. Because each round is short, players can practice focusing in small amounts. The earlier levels of the game are simple, allowing for players to practice their focus without too much complexity before moving to the higher levels of the game.
