Lincoln: Hey, dad, I need a watch.
Me: What would you do with a watch?
Lincoln: I’d tell time.
Me: Oh…you know how to tell time?
Lincoln: *scowls*
Me: I’ll show you how.
Lincoln: All I know is that if the little hand’s like on the 6 it’s o’thirty, but if the big hand’s on top it’s o’clock.
Me: (pointing to clock on the wall showing 6:45 pm) What time is it now?
Lincoln: I don’t know. I’ll have to wait till it’s 7:30.

Hee hee. That was really adorable. I like that you added “scowls”.

Is reading analog clocks still a subject in elementary school at any point? It seems like most kids would be exposed primarily to digital clocks/watches now.

In Oregon, they are not teaching about telling time to the little kids anymore.
