Brilliant game
Thank you for this game! Anyone who needs help or has a child that not interested in telling the time well this is the game for you! I got this to teach my daughter the time but in a fun way! Well this was a fun game believe I play it! It doesn't just tell the time in a clock way it teach them to read it in digital way! I would definitely recommend this product to anyone

Not all it appears to be.
Initally the game was good fun and my 6 year old really enjoyed it. However on the third time of playing it, he realised the clocks on the cards were colour coded, so he automatically knew which game board to look at. I kind of felt this defeated the object of the game, because instead of him actually looking through all the clocks on the back of the boards, studying the times, he was just looking on one board (we played with 2 each) and matching.For that reason i would say this was more appropriate for 3-5 year olds and i wouldn't recommend for any older, definitely not a 7/8/9 year old.

A boring version of lotto, without much benefit.
I'm a little disappointed with this game if I am honest. We already have a couple of Orchard Toy Lotto games, which are great and we've had lots of fun playing them. This, as another lotto game, is absolutely fine and it does kind of bring up the topic of time for discussion, but I wouldn't go so far as saying that it is a must-have teaching resource for helping children to learn to tell the time. It can be played without telling the time. If anything it is a much more boring version of lotto, with no great benefit really. The children haven't shown much interest in it. I don't think it will get much use in our household - it will be very short-lived.

Dull and doesn't help to teach time telling.
I bought this to help my child learn to tell the time. It's very dull and more painful for adults to play than a lot of the Orchard games. There's no learning to tell the time in this game. You basically take turns to move the clock hands to match the time on a little card. If your child doesn't know a little about telling the time, it will be difficult to play, if they can already tell the time, the game is pointless.You couldn't play it over and over, or up to the age range because it's so dull. Once you correctly identify the time on the little card and move the clock hands, you keep the little card and move around the board until you land on a square where you lose a card. It's a game of luck.

Lovely game to play with kids.
This is a great game for my 6 year old who just learned to tell time. Though just to be clear a child would need to know how to tell time in order to play this correctly. Great for practicing.

Really fun and easy to play game for all the family
Really fun and easy to play game for all the family. Bought for my daughter aged 8 but younger daughter aged 3 can also join in at a very basic level. Would definitely recommend as a fun educational game.

Bit boring I'm afraid
Not our favourite Orchard game and we have quite a few. Bought for my 8 yr old who struggles with the time. Not enough game play or fun for him, too much of the hard part, telling the time. It put him right off. You throw the die, move, tell the time. Tiny board to move around, very repetitive and a bit boring. Not for older kids I think, 7 upwards unless they're really struggling with learning the time.

Good start for telling the time
Bought for grandchild age 4. My daughter reports that it can be played by her younger child age 2 and a half as well as the birthday boy. A good game to teach children to tell the time. I can state that I invigilate GCSE exams and am regularly asked by candidates what the time is as they cannot tell the time by a regular clock.
