A clock is like a little storyteller that tells the time of day. It has hands that move around numbers, and each full circle they make means one hour has passed. The smaller hand moves slower, while the bigger hand zooms around faster, just like how we count minutes and hours in our lives.
Examples
- A clock hand moving around the numbers shows how much time has passed.
- The ticking sound in some clocks counts each second like a little drummer.
- When it's midnight, the hour and minute hands both point to 12.
