Question about attention span

Hi, can anyone help? I'm worried about ADHD and I want to know what it means when people talk about a child's attention span. Does this mean how long they can listen to a story for, or does it mean how long they can play/draw/whatever on their own for?

My DD, who's 3 and a half, will concentrate with me for a while, if I'm reading to her, painting with her, or doing a kids' magazine with her, but she won't concentrate on those things alone.

I've posted the same question on the behaviour/development thread but thought people here might be particularly qualified to answer. Thanks a lot for any help!

You could look at my thread, too.
