Time for some Clock

     We made a clock today to learn how to read time. Simple and easy way to learn for 4 to 6 year kids to learn reading time from an analog clock.

Things needed:

Paper plate

White sheet of paper

Sketch pens

Glue

Headpin or snap button

Small plier

Method:

Cut the plate in a smaller disc shape. 

Take the sheet and cut long strips 6 in number. Attach them to the sheet as shown in the third picture.

Write the 12 numbers on the paper plate as in a wall clock.  Similarly write their minutes on the white sheet attached to the number.

I have marked the hours with green and minutes with purple to differentiate between them.

I have also marked two hearts to depict which colour should be read first.

Also inbetween the hours I have written the previous number only to clarify which number should be read.

Cut a hour and minute hands from the leftover sheet and fix them properly using a headpin or a snap button.

Now set a time and ask your kid to read the time (check the video).. Once they start reading it will be fun as they start fixing their own time to do their daily activities..
