Time Tamer:First Minutes is best suited for children aged 5โ€“7, especially with adult guidance at the beginning. Use Experiment to discuss the clock and explain the game to the child if required.

  • Practice matching analog and digital clocks

  • Three difficulty levels: Low, Medium, Hard

  • Language versions with voiceover (TTS)

  • Timed challenge mode for scoring

  • Free practice mode for experimenting with the clock hands

  • Mobile-friendly layout

  • Suitable for short play sessions at home or in class.

Curriculum alignment: CCSS.MATH.CONTENT.1.MD.B.3 (tell and write time in hours and half-hours using analog and digital clocks) ยท CCSS.MATH.CONTENT.2.MD.C.7 (tell and write time from analog and digital clocks to the nearest five minutes). Recommended grades 1โ€“3.

nice game , i will show it to my children .
i didn't understand the free play .. challenge is good , maybe a bit too long .
come to try my game sonotone ( it's musical and educational ) .

(1 edit)

Free play was just for interaction, so you can discuss the clock with your child. Then they can try the challenge and play it until they are bored :) Then they can move to the Clock Quest game for more challenges. Thanks for the observation, I'll think how to make it more clear.

Love it! Gonna test on my daughter. I also got confused with free play. Maybe a menu where you select "Free Play" or "Challenge " in the beginning would help?

Thanks zslava, you pointed out a weakness sitting in the plain sight. Iโ€™m working to make things more obvious.
