TFA Tick & Tack

Learning to tell time made easy. Never before has learning to read the clock been so much fun as with our TICK & TACK children's clock set, which includes a wall clock and a matching toy learning clock. The intricately and lovingly designed wall clock surprises with many little details. The included learning clock is ideal for practicing telling time. With movable hands made of cardboard, any time can be set and tested. This not only promotes learning to tell time but also enhances the child's fine motor skills.

The dials of the learning clock and the wall clock are identical, making it easier for the child to recognize what they have learned on the "real" clock and read the time. Numerous markings assist in explaining the clock, such as distinguishing between hours and minutes and using terms like "quarter" and "half" correctly.

In the outer ring, the minutes are marked with dots and numbered in fives. The middle ring displays the hours from 1 to 12, while the inner ring shows the hours from 13 to 24. Small circular symbols indicate the quarter-hour intervals (quarter past, half past, quarter to, and full hour).

The bright colors not only motivate learning but also fit well in any child's room. Since young clock readers need to have a good grasp of numbers, we recommend learning to tell time starting from ages 5 to 6. By the second grade at the latest, children should be able to read the clock.
