 Lots of fun and learning going on Jul 15, 2009
By Misty Morning
I just bought this as a birthday present for my just-turned-4-year-old and he *loves* it. It's designed to be used at various levels -- you can select color-coded cards depending on what your child already knows: to the hour, half-hour, etc. He can play it on his own and self-check by comparing the time he set on his clock to the one on the card. We haven't yet played by the official rules with keeping score, but we have a lot of fun with it. It's very durable and I expect it to last so I can use it with his little sister when the time comes!

Eeboo game - What time is it? Oct 02, 2008
By Minnesota mom
Love this game. I am working on it with my 5 yr old autistic son. This highly visual, hands on learning game makes learning the concept of telling time much easier.

Fun way to learn to tell time Jan 31, 2010
By J. Duran
"BABY BARGAIN HUNTER"
Played this game today for the first time with my Kindergartner who is almost six. We used the easiest level and it was fun for him and gave him confidence in telling time. Will try the next level cards on our next game. I think this game will be a hit in learning to tell time in a fun way!
Great teaching tool Apr 24, 2012
By J. Griffith
I have been searching for a way to teach my 4 year old how to tell time and this one has worked the best. Here is how the game works:
There are 4 large clocks in different designs so that up to 4 players can join. There is a stack of playing card which are color coded. One side of the card shows the time on a digital clock and the time is also spelled out in words. The player selects a card and then sets the specified time his or her large analog clock. Once finished, the selected card is turned over and the correct setting for the listed time on the analog clock is shown. Players get points for correct responses.
The time cards are color coded so that you can select to only use cards with specified difficulty. For example, the red cards show only time on the hour (8:00, 9:00 etc.) This way you can change to more difficult levels as your child gets better. Once you master on the hour you can progress to the half hour and 5 minute cards. Seems to work well as a teaching tool. It includes a pad for keeping score.
Only issue I could see is that the clock boards are made of cardboard. The clock arms are connected to the clock faces with a rivet. They might bend or wear out with rough play. I have not had an issue yet but have only had mine two weeks and a plastic practice clock can easily fill in.

 Good concept but weak follow thru Dec 31, 2010
By Jenny G
I liked the concept of the game. I bought it for our 6-yr old granddaughter who hasn't yet learned about time. There are 4 boards with analog clock faces and movable hands; the boards appear sturdy and well made. I like that the playing cards can be varied by level of difficulty: hour marks only for beginners, then add in half-hour for the next level, then quarter after/till, then every 5-minutes. The game is played by turning over cards that show the time digitally. Players translate the digital time to analog using their clock boards. Scoring and winning is based on a point system with points awarded for setting the time correctly, with different points depending on whether or not you turned the card over. Expecting 6 yr old to keep track of a point system using a paper score pad is ridiculous. A board where they could peg for correct answers would be better. We modified the rules the first time we played. The 6 yr old is enjoying it for now, but I'm not sure how long that will last.
