10 Craft Ideas To Do With Printable Clock Faces
Here are ten affordable, fun, and creative craft ideas you can do with your completed coloring page!
10. Movable Hand Clocks
The most basic thing you can do with my clock printables is making movable hands so that you can use them as a teaching aide for your kids.
To do this, you’re going to take one of the clock pictures that comes with hands and cut out both the clock and the hands.
Mount the clock onto a piece of construction paper, poster board, or even cardboard.
You’re going to need a fastener; you’ll line up the hands, arrows facing outward, and center them in the middle of the clock.
Then, push down the fastener so that it goes through the hands, clock, and whatever you have mounted your clock on.
If you used cardboard, you might need to make a pre-divot to get the fastener through.
Then you can manipulate the hands to tell whatever time you need it to!
9. Bedtime/Wake-Up Clocks
A good way to teach kids to tell time is to start practicing with times that stay regular, like bedtime and wake-up.
You can make a poster for the wall or fridge without hands using one of my clocks.
Print off two and cut them out, then mount them on the same piece of construction paper or poster board.
Draw in the bedtime and wake-up times, and make sure to label each!
Now, when the working clock looks like the clock faces here, your kids will know it’s time for bed or to get up out of bed and start their day.
8. Scrapbooking
Two clocks in my collection are perfect for scrapbooking when you want to show the passage of time or suggest that what occurred was a moment in time.
You can resize the images by copying/pasting the pictures from their downloadable PDF format into a Word processor document.
7. Velcro Digital Clocks
Of course, not every clock your kids come across will be analog; a great many will be digital, so it’s important to practice telling time that way, too.
You can do this by using my digital clock with numbers page; cut out all the pieces and mount the clock onto a piece of construction paper or cardboard.
You’re going to get Velcro, cut one side into four small squares or rectangles, and paste them on the clock’s face, where the numbers would be.
Then, using the other side of the Velcro, you’ll cut that into small squares or rectangles and paste them to the backs of the numbers.
You can then post up and tear off numbers as you go through your lessons.
6. Telling Time Worksheets
You can use my mini-clock faces for a lot of practice telling time, using both regular numbers and Roman numerals.
Print off a few pages and draw on arms that tell a variety of different times.
Then give them to your kids and have them write when the clocks are set on.
5. DIY Clock Faces
Take some time off – pun intended – from practicing telling time and have your kids stretch their creativity wings a bit.
Print off one of my larger clock faces and have the kids color them in however they want; they can draw superheroes or flowers or use glitter and sequins.
Then you can turn it into a real clock face by purchasing a cheap clock from Walmart, popping off the plastic cover, and replacing it.
4. Watches
Turn my mini-clock faces into wearable timepieces that kids learning to tell time can wear – just like Mom and Dad.
You’ll need about a two or three-inch wide strip of construction paper, and you’ll paste the clock face into the middle.
Then wrap the strip around your kid’s wrist and tape the ends together, cutting off any extra.
3. Daily Routine/Tasks Posters
When you’re the head of a classroom, you’ll want to run a tight ship and adhere as closely to the schedule as possible.
Using my clock pictures, you can help students achieve this by making daily routines or task posters.
Draw on the hands for break or naptime, lunchtime, changing of the classes or subjects, and recess.
Your students can look from the actual clock to the posters and judge how long they have before the next task or activity.
2. Time Out Posters
Time out can feel arbitrary to a kid, so help them understand how long they are to go without screens or sit quietly and read by creating time-out posters.
You’ll need two printouts of a clock face with hands and two fasteners.
Attach the clock hands to the clocks with the fasteners and mount them onto a piece of construction paper or poster board.
Then, next time your child is in time out, set one clock to when time out begins and one to when it ends.
1. Pipe Cleaner Clock Hands
You’ll need two pieces of pipe cleaner per clock, and to make it easier to tell them apart, it’s best if they’re different colors.
Your kids are going to bend the pipe cleaners on one end to form a triangle; snip one hand to be shorter, too.
Then you’re going to take a clock face and push a fastener in the middle. Wind each piece of pipe cleaner around the fastener once.
Now you can turn the clock hands!
