What Time Is It? Play Panel
The What Time Is It? Play Panel is an interactive educational playground feature designed to help children learn how to tell the time in a fun and hands-on way. By rotating the minute and hour hand discs, children can manually set and explore different times using the “Tell Me the Time” panel.
This active learning approach allows children to physically move the clock hands, helping them understand how time works in a visual and practical way. Instead of simply reading numbers on a page, they can experiment with different times, building confidence and familiarity with analogue clocks through play.
Manufactured from durable HDPE, the panel is built to withstand outdoor use in busy playgrounds and play spaces while remaining safe, strong, and low maintenance. It is designed to be either wall-mounted or post-mounted, making it highly flexible for different environments such as schools, parks, and early years settings.
Educationally, the panel supports early maths development, particularly in understanding time, sequencing, and number recognition. It also encourages problem-solving, concentration, and independent learning as children test themselves and work out different time combinations.
By combining physical interaction with core learning outcomes, the What Time Is It? Play Panel transforms a traditional classroom concept into an engaging outdoor activity that makes learning to tell the time both enjoyable and memorable.
