Do-it-yourself educational toy "Learning time"

How to teach a child to navigate in time and hours? The task is not an easy one. Help your baby to easily and quickly acquire the skills of correct determination and counting of time. To do this, make an educational toy with your own hands - an educational clock from plastic plates.

A minimum of time and absolutely inexpensive materials - that's all you need for this craft.

The initial set is 2 paper plates of different diameters and different colors (we took one white, the second bright orange), PVA glue, numbers or a marker. As blanks for numbers, you can use purchased numbers from foam material, you can cut them out of cardboard yourself or draw them with a marker. You can do it, as in the sample, lay out the hours from the blanks, and draw the minutes.

First of all, we glue the plates together, putting one inside the other, then we stick the “hours” on the inner plate, and write the “minutes” on a large plate. Marking is desirable to do in advance.

We fasten the arrows with a bolt in a special hole in the center. Arrows made of thick colored cardboard.

All you have to do is tell your daughter or son how to use the watch.
