When can I play? We’re the hands of the clock, as we go tick tock We show the hours with numbers And the rest with dots Noon, midnight, quarter to 3 Let’s talk about how to read AM, PM, half past 2 We love telling time with you I’m the hour hand. I take my time I’m the shortest and the widest kind I stay in my hour until the next one chimes Every day I go around 2 times And that’s 24 hours I’m the minute hand, won’t you come along with me I count the minutes in an hour: there are sixty I’m the long hand, count the minutes differently Count by fives, and you’ll be telling time efficiently Let’s start in the second hour: (2:)05, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30 is the half-hour, 35, 40, 45, 50, 55, On the 12 at the top, we just say “3 o’clock” (3:)05, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30 is the half-hour, 35, 40, 45, 50, 55, On the 12 at the top, we just say “4 o’clock” (4:00...) I’m the second hand, really really slim I can tell you what part of the minute you’re in You can’t see my numbers, just like the minute And ev’ry single minute has 60 seconds in it Most of the time I’m a different color I go so fast, unlike the others I’m the tick-tock, tick-tock that you hear When time feels slow, and I’m screaming IN YOUR EAR! …sorry. I’m only on some clocks, if that helps. Noon, midnight, quarter to 3 Let’s talk about how to read AM, PM, half past 2 We love telling time with you Copyright © 2024 Hopscotch #hopscotchsongs #tellingtimesong #tellingtimeforkids
