The US Department of Education has a game designed for ADHD children called the “FFFBI Academy” or “Fin, Fur, and Feather Bureau of Investigation.” The seven different mini games that are available on the FFFBI Academy's website target certain ADHD symptoms through interactive learning. For example, the fourth “mission”--“Monitor Lizard”--works on short-term memory, attention to certain cues and ignoring distractions. As part of the day's lesson, the student can play 10 to 15 minutes of the game if he completes all of his tasks for that class, such as finishing an assignment. Click this link to play.
