Review on πŸ•˜ Exploring the Features of the BEST LEARNING Learning Clock: An Educational Talking Toy for Toddlers & Kids Ages 3-6 by Victor Shepherd

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Confusing for newbies

The left switch is the OFF/Volume Down/Volume Up button. The right switch has changed function: 1. Shows you the time when the hands are set to.2. Quiz Mode: Gives you time and you put hands. Then press the top button to check your answer3. sleep/music function. The hour hand (yellow) can only be set exactly to the hour, if you walk past it a little like on a real clock, it shows you the next hour. So if you set it to just over 8 (the hour hand would be at 8:30 for example) the clock will tell you it's 9 o'clock (or 9:30 if you're really trying to read 8:30) . ). Test mode is NOT suitable for beginners who want to learn how to read the time. In the quiz mode, moments such as "quarter to one", "ten minutes to two", "quarter to four" or "seven minutes to six" are set. Actually, there should be two quiz modes: one that tests the easy old time "two ten (2:10)" and the second that tests more difficult times like "six minutes to five". I feel the voice is a bit slow. There are annoying sound effects when typing with your hands (especially in quiz mode). I don't need beeps and electronic "clicks" when dialing the hands, there is a physical click every hour or minute. So you now get two "clicks", one electronic and one physical. I'm not sure the circle dot on the minute hand. I think it just confuses the kid that they think the circled number is important for reading time when it's actually the small number of minutes you need. If you set the time to 5 hours and 50 minutes, it will show 5:50, but it's closer to 4:50. . (See photo).

Pros
  • One year trial period
Cons
  • Pretty much everything is fine
