The Magic of a Clock

Tick-tock, tick-tock! Have you ever wondered about the magic of a clock? Just like in Sowmya Rajendran's stories, clocks can tell us when it's time for fun, time for school, or time for bedtime!

They have hands that move around, pointing to numbers, helping us know when to play and when to rest. Imagine a clock that could talk! What stories would it tell?

Maybe it would share secrets about all the adventures it has seen. So, next time you hear a clock ticking, remember it’s not just counting time; it’s counting all the wonderful moments of your day!
