11 Clock Craft For Kids

11 Clock Craft For Kids

I’ve been trying to get my kids interested in telling time for a few months now. 

I’ve found that there are lots of fun ways to practice with them, and these clock crafts for kids will be perfect!

Clock Craft

Materials

• Crayons, pencils, and markers are fine for this project.
• A piece of paper or cardboard big enough to make a clock face on it. You can also use a circle template if you want to make your own clock face!
• Tools
• Scissors – Cut the paper into strips and squares as needed for your project. Use the scissors to cut any other materials that need trimming! Watch out for those sharp edges when using scissors around children!

Tic Tac Clock Craft

Time to get out your tic tac containers and make a tic tac clock, perfect for hanging on the wall or as a room decoration. 

For some extra fun, use colored straws for the hour and minute hands.

• What you need:
• A Tic Tac container (or similar)
• A straw (optional)

Yarn Wrapped Clock Craft

This craft is simple, attractive, and fun for kids of any age. It’s also a great way to recycle yarn scraps if you’re looking for some new ideas on how to use them.

When making your own yarn-wrapped clock, it is important to decide whether you want to use paper or cardboard tubing. If you choose cardboard tubing (which I do), try finding one that’s thicker than an average toilet paper roll so it’ll be easier for your child to wrap the yarn around later on.

To make a yarn-wrapped paper plate clock.

Cut off both ends of the tube and discard them. Then cut down one side of the tube so there are two equal halves left on opposite sides of each other—you’ll end up with four pieces in total when all is said and done! 

Then take one piece and make sure its edge faces outward using glue or tape so it won’t unravel when being used later on by another child who wants something similar without having any idea how easy it actually was! 

After this step has been completed successfully once again apply another layer before moving onto step 2 below where I’ve left off here after facing off an edge just like before but now using adhesive only instead which will leave much bigger gaps between sections than if we didn’t use anything at all since there wouldn’t be any overlap whatsoever–and don’t forget about Step 3 either because guess what? You still haven’t finished yet!

Paper Plate Clock Craft

This craft is one of the easiest ways to make a clock for your kids. 

It is also a great way to practice telling time, reading the clock face, and telling time in the morning and afternoon. You will need:

• A paper plate
• A pen, colored pencils, or markers
• Scissors or a knife

Circle Clock Craft

This is a classic craft, and it’s one of the first crafts that most kids make. 

It’s easy to make, and you can use it for teaching time.

Materials needed.

• a piece of paper or cardboard
• crayons (or markers) in primary colors (red, blue, and yellow)
• waxed paper or parchment paper for drying the craft

Clock Printable

Once you’ve printed the sheet, cut it out and use a hole punch to create a hole in the center of your clock. 

Wrap the string around your finger and thread it through that central hole, tie a knot at one end, then wind up your newly made hand-made timepiece!

Number Puzzle Clock Craft

It’s time for another clock craft! This one is super easy to make and can be used for so many activities, including:

• practicing telling time
• practicing number recognition
• practicing counting

Button Clock Craft

• Supplies
• A craft kit with assorted buttons, beads, and other accessories
• A clock kit (a plastic face with a battery-powered digital display)
• You’ll also need some glue. 

Superglue is perfect for this project since you can use it to adhere the clock hands to your button frame. 

You might want to choose a glue gun for younger kids or those who don’t have steady hands yet; it makes gluing buttons on a frame much faster than using regular glue sticks.

Paper Plate Ticking Hand Clock Craft

Supplies

• Paper plate
• Ticking hand clock movement
• Design paper or cardstock to cover the paper plate, cut it out in a circle shape (to make it look like a face), and glue it on. This can also be done with paint.

Cardboard Tube Clock Craft

Materials

• Cardboard Tube (available at craft stores)
• Paper Clock Face (download the template for free here.)
• Colored Pencils or Markers (optional)

Instructions

Cut the tube in half lengthwise, so you have two identical tubes: one for the clock face and one to use as a handle. 

If you’re cutting your own cardboard tubes, make sure they’re not too small! 

You want them just slightly bigger than your finished product will be; otherwise, it won’t fit properly into its hole without tearing at all

Toilet Paper Roll Clock Craft

Toilet paper roll crafts are easy to make, and your kids will love them! 

This one will take you about 30 minutes from start to finish.

Materials needed.

• toilet paper rolls (one for each child)
• paint (in primary colors)
• construction paper or card stock in red, blue, and yellow
• scissors

Working On Telling Time

We have been working on telling time with my kids, so I am always looking for fun ways to practice. These clock crafts for kids will be perfect for them to tell their own time.

When it comes to clocks, kids love telling time. They enjoy learning about the different hands and what each one does.

Teaching your kids how to read a clock can be a fun way for them to learn how our days are spent. Your child can even make their own clock crafts for kids with this easy tutorial!
