Abstract: A device for teaching one about telling time is provided. The device includes a clock face with rotatable minute and hour hands. The minute and hour hands are adapted so that a user of the device can rotate them manually to indicate a preselected time. The device is able to detect the positions of the hands around the clock face, and to move the hands to indicate a predetermined time without any manual manipulation of the hands by the user. The device can be programmed with a variety of games that a user of the device can play to learn about telling time. The user can manually set the clock hands to indicate a time requested by the device and, if the time the user sets is incorrect, the device can automatically set the hands to the correct time.
