Watches for Children
Children's watches with clear dials, learning watches with hours and minutes marked, digital models and waterproof watches.
Learning to tell the time
A learning watch marks the hours and minutes separately, often in two colours, so a child can read it before they fully understand it. That makes the clock something they use rather than something they are tested on. Analogue is the harder skill, and the one that keeps being useful.
A watch that survives school
Look for a watch that copes with hand washing and rain, since a child's watch rarely comes off. A soft silicone strap is more comfortable and easier to fasten than a buckled leather one. Check that the strap has enough holes, because wrists grow faster than watches wear out.
