Teaching kids to tell time on an analog clock can be a bit tricky in our digital age! I found that using an interactive analog clock online really helped my niece grasp the concept. Being able to move the hour and minute hands themselves and see the time change makes it much more engaging and understandable than just looking at a static picture. Many of these tools also have modes to hide the digital time, so kids have to figure it out from the hands, which is great practice. It’s a fun and effective learning aid!
