Product Description
It's time to "block" around the clock! Two toys in one, this colorful clock combines shape sorting and learning to tell time. Place the numbered and shaped pieces in their proper place on the face of the clock, then move the hour and minute hands to make telling time fun! Measures 9" x 5".

4 out of 5 stars Learning to tell time.   November 10, 2008
The 60 seconds for each minute are missing! Needs to have the 60 seconds marked on the clock with every 5th number (over the large hour numbers)emphasized so children can learn to count by 5's to learn, for example, 10:10. There is room to do this... and would make a good educational better.


4 out of 5 stars Great clock: educational AND fun   September 28, 2008

One of my kids is interested in telling time, and another is interested in shapes. They both like playing with this clock.

I read a lot of reviews that complained that the 5 has six sides and the 6 has five sides. Mine must be a later model, because the 5 has five sides and the 6 has six sides. But even if they were the old way, I wouldn't have been bothered by this at all: the 2 has four sides and the 9 has four sides and the 10 has four sides and the 11 has four sides and the 12 has ten sides---so the number of sides don't correspond to the number on the shape, and they're clearly not supposed to.



4 out of 5 stars Beats Electronic Toys Hands Down or Up   September 28, 2008

This is a great teaching toy. Wooden toys like this beat electronic gadgets every time. With a gizmo you assume, or hope it will talk to your child and teach them how to tell time. But we have quite a few of those gizmos and my kids don't play with them a quarter of the time they play with this. Yes, I noticed that the pentagon and the hexagon are reversed in numeric value, but so what. It took a minute to explain that to my daughter and she moved on. It turns out, it was just another learning opportunity.

This very colorful clock has been around our house for years. It takes a licking and keeps on ticking too.

This requires parent participation, it doesn't talk to the child but it really educates them. It gives them something to hold onto, both literally and figuratively. This is a really good toy.



4 out of 5 stars NEAT FOR OLDER CHILDREN   September 23, 2008
I got this for my 5 year old and it's a great toy. She likes to put the different shapes in the holes but isn't too interested in learning the time part of it. I have a 1 year old and she likes to get the pieces and put them all the way in her mouth so please beware around smaller children.
