Tell Time for Kids
Learn the clock, ages 4-6
Free · In‑App Purchases · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
A first clock app for children ages 4 to 6.
Children learn what each hand means and how to read it by turning the hands with their own finger. Every question is read aloud, so it works before your child can read.
■ Four ways to play
[Read the clock]
Look at the clock and pick the right time from three choices. There is no penalty for a wrong answer. The app shows the correct time and moves on gently.
[Move the hands]
"Make it half past seven." Set the hands with your finger. Turning the big hand moves the little hand too, so children feel how the two hands work together.
[Time of day]
Pick the clock that matches everyday moments: breakfast, school, bath time, bedtime. The numbers on the clock connect to your child's own day.
[How clocks work]
A free mode with no scoring. Spin the hands and watch the time change as it is spoken aloud. Children can check "one full turn of the big hand moves the little hand one hour" as many times as they like.
■ Three levels
1. O'clock
2. O'clock and half past
3. 5-minute steps
Clearing one level unlocks the next, so children move at their own pace.
■ Made for small children
- The little hand is orange, the big hand is blue. Each hand matches the color of the numbers it points to, so it is clear at a glance which hand to read.
- On the easier levels the hands snap to 5-minute steps, so small fingers can land where they mean to.
- 6 correct out of 8 clears a round and earns a reward sticker.
- Buttons are large, and the app never punishes a wrong answer.
■ For parents
- Levels 1 and 2 and "How clocks work" are free. Level 3 (5-minute steps) in all three games is unlocked with a one-time purchase, "Unlock All" (in each game, after clearing Level 2)
- The purchase screen is behind a check for grown-ups (a multiplication question)
- No ads
- The app does not communicate with our servers. The only network activity is Apple's purchase process (StoreKit). Progress is saved only on this device
- No links out of the app
- No data is collected
Safe to hand to your child.
Available in English and Japanese.
