Hands-On Time & Fraction Learning Clock
Help Your Child Finally Understand Time—Not Just Memorize It
Telling time is hard because it’s abstract. This hands-on wooden learning clock turns minutes and fractions into something students can see, touch, and build—so time actually makes sense.
Instead of memorizing that “30 minutes = half an hour,” children physically create the hour from pieces and discover how parts fit into a whole. This approach builds real understanding for telling time, elapsed time, and fraction concepts.
Designed for homeschool families, tutors, and classrooms—especially helpful for visual, tactile, and neurodiverse learners.
What Your Child Will Be Able to Do
✔ See how minutes combine to make one full hour
✔ Understand ½, ¼, ⅓ as real parts of time
✔ Tell time with confidence instead of guessing
✔ Connect fractions to everyday life
✔ Strengthen problem solving and number sense
✔ Reduce frustration with clocks and word problems
This is more than a clock—it’s a thinking tool that replaces worksheets with understanding.
