Literally anything can distract kids and make them throw a tantrum when you take it away. Have you ever met a child?

Yeah you're right. Young children are renowned for their vast attention spans, or at least they used to be before cell phones were invented. Nobody ever passed notes, made paper airplanes, graffitied on their desks, or drew pictures in class prior to 2006.
