Children experience time passing too quickly during a favorite activity, as well as how slowly time passes when we are waiting for something. Understanding time and how to tell time is often difficult for children. Encourage your child's development of this concept by talking about past and upcoming events. Calendars and holidays are a fun way to learn about the passage of time, and the recurring cycle of seasons.
