Klepto Cats helps kids practice and improve the following skills:

Time Management: Planning For Future Goals. 

At the beginning of the game you live with one cat. If you want to add cats to your home or purchase accessories for them, you need to save up coins and gems. Because cats are expensive to purchase, you need to have a plan for how you are going to collect and save up enough to purchase them. As you collect more cats, you also need to plan for how you will accessorize them and how much each accessory will cost you. Students who do not plan out how long it will take for them to reach these goals may find themselves waiting longer to earn the coins/gems they need to purchase a cat/accessory. 

Organization: Managing One’s Environment/Personal Possessions.

Within the game, everything is purchased by coins or gems. Students need to know how much their purchases will cost and plan to play enough mini games to earn the right amount of currency. This requires students to be organized about how much money they currently have and what they need to earn. Students who do not do this may find themselves not earning enough currency or playing the mini games longer than they needed to.
