Customer Reviews: tell the timeMay 13, 2010 A. Watson(York) Good game, easy to use, not as much educational value as had hoped but fun to play.

I usually love orchard games. I have several and they are great fun. But very disappointed with this one. The title implies it helps with telling the time but it doesn't. In schools time is taught via the quarter and half hour and most importantly o'clock. This game however refers to 7.00am or 8.30pm which is completely different. It's also possible to play the game without any reference to telling the time by just matching the picture on the card to the picture on the board so children don't have to tell the time at all and it becomes just a normal lotto game. It would be lovely to see a game which actually deals with telling the time in a way that children would learn. My bright five year old played this with me and is none the wiser about telling the time
One to get out every so oftenJanuary 19, 2010 Ruth Mumford(Cardiff, UK) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I bought this for my 4 year old, even though he can't tell the time yet. He knows his numbers, and recognises 7 oclock. He's starting to understand half past the hour. This game will hopefully get him recognising the quarter past and quarter to the hours, and understanding how time works.
Good product. Durable. Good pictures and easy to understand rules of the game.
Pictures make it a bit easy...December 7, 2009 Catherine Robertson(Surrey, UK) 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I bought this for my son to help him learn the time - it does help especially as it uses quarter past and quarter to (which most books leave out!) but with the pictures you can just match the picture and not actually try to work out the time. One of these days I'll make plain paper pieces with clocks on them...!
We all love Orchard Toys and think their games are wonderful!

Great game. My 5 and 7 year old love it, and they're learning as well.
