Hide and Seek: Cat Escape!   helps kids practice and improve the following skills:

Focus: Sustaining energy for short-term tasks. 

Each level in Hide and Seek: Cat Escape is short, meaning it is great for a player who needs to improve their focusing skills. The sole objective in the game is to avoid being seen by an angry house cat, meaning the player needs to focus on how they are going to stay hidden. Blocking out other distractions and focusing on this objective becomes harder as the game goes on and various obstacles begin to change. However, there are plenty of levels in the beginning which allow for players to work their way up to focusing in harder circumstances. 

Flexibility: Adapting and adjusting to changing conditions and expectations. 

Hide and Seek: Cat Escape is a great way for players to practice their flexibility. The earlier levels allow for players to become used to the way the game is played. However, as the levels get harder, players need to adapt to changing conditions. Sometimes the objects to hide behind are smaller, giving less room for error in timing. Other times, the family dog will pop up, blocking your view and causing you to estimate where your character is instead of being able to see her. Various other changes in gameplay allow students to practice adapting to changes and altering their actions based on these changes.
