Flik Flak
Have a child on your list who is learning to tell time? Would this story help?
With his long legs, Flik has the job of showing the minutes. He takes a step forward every 60 seconds. After he has been round the whole watch face once, an hour has passed. Then it's Flak's turn: she jumps forward to show the next full hour. Flik doesn't mind that Flak is always read first. After all, he has good manners: "Ladies first!", he says.
Flik Flak has a wide variety of fun watches - everything from Spiderman to Disney's Frozen. These Swiss-made watches are functional and durable and make a great educational gift for the holidays!
