What's the time Mr Wolf?

Just popping in to share another (free!) application we've been having fun with. I actually loaded it a little while ago but Mia has just taken an interest today.


It's called Clock Master and as the name suggests, it's designed to teach kids how to tell the time. My kiddos' have a basic understanding of time since during the working week we rely solely on public transport, and it's a necessity when reading the bus timetables and needing to arrive somewhere on time!


The game seems like the logical next step. The clock face has a digital clock beneath it that you have to set to match the time. There are three levels of skill, after a few attempts on the easy setting Mia set it straight to hard. When you get the answer wrong, the screen flashes between showing what 'you entered' and the correct answer; a good feature.

Callum hasn't shown any interest in it, actually he's been skulking around because he's "no good at it" when he hasn't even looked at it. He is a perfectionist by nature and will either give in quickly or not attempt something at all if he doesn't think he will master it straight away. An annoying habit!
