Hickory, Dickory, Dock

A program for children learning to tell the time, with a grandfather clock and a digital display that follows its hands. Practice lets you move the hands freely, and three tests ask you to set hours, half hours and then five-minute times. Five right answers bring a nursery-rhyme reward, and after three wrong tries the hands move to the correct answer.

Controls: Left and right turn the minute hand, up and down the hour hand; the left button answers.
