My son never does anything slow even for a 5 year old. At this age he was ready to learn how to tell time. I decided to combine his love of race cars and his desire to learn to tell time and got him the cool looking red Formula 1 watch. He sure was happy when he opened the package after the mail had come. He could not wait for me to set the time so that he could go racing around the neighborhood to show his mates. The design of the face has made it much easier for him to learn how to tell time and now that he has had his watch for a couple of months is very good at telling the time.
