Printable learn to tell the time Worksheets

There is a time for everything that we do, whether it is sleeping, playing, or eating. Telling the time seems like second nature to us now. The fact of knowing the difference between night and day is a kid’s entry into the world of time. Some parents find it challenging to help their kids learn the time. However, the kids must start learning to tell the time at a young age. A child’s neural connections are better prepared to understand concepts too high for them as their brain is still developing. Parents often wonder at what age should the kids learn to tell the time. The answer is that learning time is an incremental process, and learning should start at the age of 5.

The next question that comes to mind is, how to teach kids to learn about time and tell time? Helping your child learn to say the time is not exclusively bound to teaching them to read a clock. How can they be expected to read the time if they do not know what time is? Just as you would not expect a child to start reading before they could talk, telling the time is a developmental process in stages. JustFamilyFun’s ‘Learn The Time’ book helps you teach your kids all they need to know about time in a fun and engaging way.
