One thing we Savvy parents look for in any toy is how long it is apt to hold a child's interest. Melissa and Doug's well-made wooden teaching clock earns particularly high marks in this regard. It captures the interest of young toddlers, and is a valuable tool for teaching number recognition and time-keeping to older preschoolers. The designers have thought of everything! Ingenious visual cues help children figure out shape sorting far beyond the standard triangles, circles and squares, and get a handle on their hours and minutes (i.e. colored wedges demarcate minutes in increments of five). In no time at all, it will be your little one pointing to the clock, White Rabbit style, and saying, "Mommy, we're late, we're late" (for a very important date)! And you will feel, like Alice, a bit disoriented by this new wonderland where your baby suddenly knows what time it is.
