Clock Game

This game can be useful for children who are learning to tell time. Hide some treasure in the yard and invite your child to find it. Take a table or wrist clock with you into the yard and tell your little treasure hunter how to determine the direction. Using the numbers on the clock, hint him where to look. For example, if you are both standing at the number six, tell your child that the object can be found by taking a few steps towards the number twelve, or make it more difficult for him by sending him to four o'clock first. With toddlers you can use the words hot and cold; left and right; back and forth.
