My eldest is having a hard time reading time in an analogue clock. I found a paper plate under my desk and came up with the idea of making a manual clock where I could teach him how to read time.

All materials used in this craft are scraps. Instead of throwing them away, I made it into something useful.

Supplies:

Print out numbers
Paper plate
2 pcs fastener
foam pad or paper
Glue
Scissors
Tape

Steps:

Cut the tips of the two fasteners. One should be longer than the other. I used clippings from a foam board to form tips of an arrow and attached it to both cuts.

Two different colored arrows for the clock.

Then I rolled another strip of foam clippings and inserted it inside the holes of the fastener to put them together like this. It will be easier if you have a single hole fastener
