Cut out the hands and fix them through the centre with a brad so they move. The small hand with the star is the hour hand. The long hand with the heart is the minute hand. Stick the sun, moon, apple, and bed markers wherever you like, then practise setting and reading times together.
Why Build A Clock?
Building a clock makes time hands-on. Moving the hands themselves helps children understand how hours and minutes work far better than looking at pictures.
