A clock tells time by moving parts that count seconds, minutes, and hours. Gears inside the clock turn at a steady pace, like counting steps in a race. When one gear finishes its full circle, it moves to the next part of the clock, showing the next minute or hour. It’s like a team working together to keep time perfect.
Examples
- A toy clock counts the seconds like you count your steps while walking around the room.
- Winding a watch is like giving it a full tank of energy to keep running all day.
