Understanding Both Clock Types
Clocks come in two main types - analog and digital!
Analog clocks have moving hands that show hours and minutes, while digital clocks display numbers. Learning to read both helps you tell time anywhere!
How to Match Them
1️⃣ Look at the analog clock - find where the hour and minute hands point
2️⃣ Read the digital clock - the first number is hours, after : is minutes
3️⃣ Match them up - do they show the same time?

Parent Tips 🌟
- Make it a game - Have your child find matching times on different clocks around the house
- Use real clocks - Point out both analog and digital clocks in daily life (microwave, car dashboard, etc.)
- Start with whole hours - Begin with times like 3:00 before moving to more complex times like 3:45
