Game-based hearing screening — play a game, check hearing

4 – 12 years (milestone tracker from birth)

💡

Did You Know?

1 in 10 children has some form of hearing difficulty, but most are never tested. The critical window for language development is birth to 3 years — hearing loss during this period can permanently affect speech, reading, and social skills.

Why It Matters

Your child can hear a pin drop in a quiet room. But can they hear their teacher in a noisy classroom? Can they distinguish "bat" from "pat" when there's background chatter? These subtle hearing difficulties — often missed by standard hearing tests — are the hidden cause of language delays, reading difficulties, and classroom struggles.

Traditional hearing tests require a sound booth and a trained audiologist. They test pure tones — beeps at different frequencies. But real-world hearing is about speech in noise. A child who "passes" a pure tone test can still struggle to hear in the environments that matter most.

SKIDS Symphony uses Sound Scouts technology — a clinically validated, game-based hearing test that screens for speech-in-noise difficulties alongside traditional hearing thresholds. The child plays a fun game with headphones, and the app measures their hearing ability across frequencies and in noisy conditions.

Results flow directly into your child's SKIDS health record, where they're tracked alongside vision, developmental milestones, and growth data. Because hearing doesn't exist in isolation — it shapes everything.

How It Works

🎧

Get Ready

Quiet room + quality headphones. The app guides you through a quick sound check to calibrate.

🎮

Play the Game

Your child plays an engaging game for 5-8 minutes. The game adapts to test different frequencies and speech-in-noise ability.

Frequently Asked Questions

What age can my child take the hearing test?

The game-based test works best for children aged 4 and above who can understand simple game instructions. For younger children, we provide a hearing milestone tracker to monitor development.

What headphones do we need?

Quality over-ear headphones (not earbuds) provide the most accurate results. The app includes a sound calibration step to ensure accuracy with your specific headphones.

Is this a real hearing test?

Yes. Sound Scouts technology is clinically validated, published in peer-reviewed journals, and endorsed by audiologists. It screens for both hearing thresholds and speech-in-noise ability — more comprehensive than many clinic-based screenings.

What if results show a concern?

The app provides clear next steps. For amber results (monitor), we recommend retesting in 3 months. For red results (refer), we help you book an audiologist consultation through SKIDS Teleconsult.
