There's not just one type of listening skill. Usually you can listen for gist or specific information. But there's at least another listening skill: listening with impeding elements. Impeding elements can be external, such as traffic, a bad connection on the telephone, or someone talking with a hand in front of their mouth; or they can be internal, such as a speech impediment, somebody whispering or... Somebody speaking with their mouth full.
This is a great filler or revising activity. You'll just need some food. They think they know their vocab twice? Show them who's boss with this activity. So, get a mouthful of fruit or cracker or something and pronouce words or sentences to them and see how well they do at making out words.
It's backed up by theory and it's just tons of fun.
