Tells the time on a clock

Most children: 7y–8y

What it is

Reads an analogue clock to the quarter hour and understands how long things take.

Start preparing

  1. Hang an analogue clock where they eat breakfast; digital time hides the fractions.
  2. Talk in durations, not just times: 'ten minutes' next to a visible clock face.
  3. Give them the job of telling the family when it is time to leave.
