Pro tip: The $15 Casio watch changed our mornings

S

Jan 241 min read

My 6yo couldn't tell time and was CONSTANTLY asking what time it is. So I grabbed one of those cheap Casio digital watches from Target. Kid wears it everywhere now and has actually started understanding when we need to leave places. Not gonna solve the getting-out-of-the-house chaos but it's def helped. If your kid is starting to grasp time concepts, might be worth a shot.

Love this. Paired it with a simple 'look at your watch first' rule and suddenly we had peace.

Real talk though, how long did it take your kid to actually learn? Mine can read analog clocks but digital still confuses him sometimes.

This is genius. My daughter just turned 6 and has been the same way. Saving this idea because I'm tired of being a human clock.

Wait how is a Casio watch a solution if she can't tell time? Does this teach them somehow?

The Casio is such a flex because they're basically indestructible too. My kid has destroyed two watches and that Casio is still ticking after three years.
