LuLu Teaching Wall Clock
Review
I was recently sent a lovely childrens wall clock to review from Roomtogrow.co.uk who specialise in everything you could possibly need to kit your childrens bedrooms out.
Our eldest son, Adam, is getting on quite well with learning how to correctly read a clock and tell us what time it is and Wyatt has just started school so this is perfect for them.
The LuLu Teaching Wall Clock is a nifty wall clock that has big numbers on its face as well as markers for "half past", "1/4 past" and various others to help children tell the time correctly. The face covering is glass and the frame is a thick plastic which comes in either red or green. We chose red.
I think it's really important to teach our children how to tell time properly and that's not always easy when most childrens clocks are digital these days. This clock is a brilliant teaching resource that you will always have out on display to help your children and isn't "too babyish" as the children grow older. The relatively simple design also means that will go well with any theme you might have decorated the bedrooms in.
How old was your child when they started learning to tell the time? What teaching techniques do you use? Let me know in the comments below :)
This is very pretty actually. I think it would look great in an older kids room too, its the colours I think i like.
ReplyDeleteI like the bright colours but wonder if the orientation of the numbers might be a bit confusing for early learners.
ReplyDeleteThis looks fab and I love the bright colours! Im off to check them out as I really need to start introducing my little boy to the time and learning how to tell it! xx
ReplyDeleteMy little boy is 5 and he can't tell the time yet. He is learning, but still need some help. This would be perfect for him! x
ReplyDeleteWe have this clock too. One of ours girls couldn't tell time at age of 9. We had no choice but to get some help.
ReplyDeleteI think with digital watches some children take longer these days to learn to tell the time on an analogue clock or watch. This is a perfect clock to learn from.
ReplyDeleteI think the bright colours are brilliantly eye-catching x
ReplyDeleteEven now, I prefer a clock where I can see the hands rather than something digital!
ReplyDeleteLove this, it's a really lovely design as well as being educational! :)
ReplyDeleteThis looks great. I wish I had seen this when my girls were learning to tell the time!
ReplyDeletewe are teaching isaac at the moment and this looks perfect for helping him
ReplyDeleteI really need to help Emmy learn this
ReplyDeleteI love a clock with hands !
ReplyDeleteI like the way it has quarter past etc on it as I found this the hardest part of telling the time for my daughter. As I was brought up by nan I do confuse her though by saying, "five and twenty to"!
