How to Tell the Time: A Lift-the-flap Guide to Telling the Time

About the book

Learning to tell time has never been so fun!

Learning to tell time is one of the basic skills for young schoolchildren – and this charmingly illustrated and colorful book will help them with just that.

Thanks to interactive windows, children learn to connect times with common everyday situations: "It's 8:15 – isn't it time for breakfast?" or "Does brushing your teeth really take 2 minutes?"

The book How to Tell Time introduces children to how we measure seconds, minutes, hours, days, months, and years. It teaches them to tell and write time with five-minute accuracy. On the cover, you will also find a real clock with movable hands, allowing children to practice everything themselves. The entire book is accompanied by quiz questions that motivate children to move the hands and tell the correct time.

The topic of telling time can be difficult for many children. However, this book is exactly what they need – a playful, interactive, and practical way to master one of the most important life skills.
