Leave it alone, forget it, or don't care it?
Hi,
If I expect another person to ignore a thing, what should I say?
For example, we are learning something, and suddenly a big sound comes from the upstair house, and my kid is distracted.
What should I say to regain his attention?
Can I say "leave the sound alone", "forget the sound", or "don't care the sound"?
What would you say?
By the way, is "big sound" or "small sound' correct? How about "a sound", "two sounds"?
Thank you very much.

Perhaps loud sound is what you want. I would say: don't worry about it / forget it / ignore it / it's nothing.
