Understanding Daily Times
Time helps us know when things happen during the day!
We wake up in the morning, eat lunch at noon, and go to bed at night - all at special times.
Let's learn how to read clocks and understand when our favorite daily activities happen!

Parent Tips 🌟
- Make it real: Point out clock times during daily activities like "Look, it's 3 o'clock - time for your snack!"
- Clock practice: Give your child an analog watch or clock to wear and ask them to tell you what time it is throughout the day.
- Routine charts: Create a picture schedule with times for different activities to help connect time concepts to real life.
