The best way to teach listening skills is to have young children repeat what you have just said. As they get older, having children write what you said teaches the skill as well. As a parent, be careful to state instructions to your children in language that they understand, then immediately ask them to repeat the instruction - in their own words. This is a key since it shows that not only did they hear the instruction, but they are synthesizing the material as well.
