Hodinko: Learn to Tell Time

Hodinko teaches children to read a clock with hands — in English, Slovak and Czech, the way each language really says the time.

SIX LEVELS
• O'clock
• Half past
• Quarters
• Five minutes
• Every minute
• 24-hour clock — 14:15 is still quarter past two

TWO WAYS TO PRACTISE
• Read the time off the dial and pick the right answer.
• Set the hands with a finger. The short hand moves with the long one, just like a real clock, so at quarter to three it sits almost on the three.

Every question offers the neighbouring hour among the wrong answers, because that is the mistake children make most often.

THE RIGHT WORDS
English times follow the National Curriculum in England; Slovak and Czech times follow the Slovak and Czech academies' language institutes. Every phrase is checked by a test. Minutes between the quarters are read as digits, such as 2:20.

MADE FOR CHILDREN
• No ads, no purchases, no subscription.
• No timer — your child can think for as long as they need.
• No notifications, no accounts, no sign-up.
• Needs no internet and sends nothing anywhere. Progress stays on the device.

After 10 right answers in a row your child earns a star and is offered the next level.
