KinderUhr ist eine App, die Kindern allein oder mit Hilfe eines Erwachsenen das Lesen und den Umgang mit der Uhr näher bringt. Es gibt 3 verschiedene Ziffernblätter (" Themes" genannt), aus denen sich das Kind seine Lieblingsuhr aussuchen kann (Blümchen, Eisenbahn etc.). Nun kann man entweder die aktuelle Uhrzeit anzeigen lassen oder die Uhrzeit mit dem Finger selbst einstellen und per Knopfdruck von einer Kinderstimme vorlesen lassen (prima zum Üben!). Über die Optionen kann eingestellt werden ob 12 oder 24 Stunden abgedeckt werden. Die Minuten kann man zusätzlich in 5er-Schritten auf dem Ziffernblatt dazu- oder wegschalten oder Sekunden und Minuten dynamisch am jeweiligen Zeiger anzeigen lassen. Viel Spaß dabei!
