For continued development, encourage the child to practice telling time on a digital clock in real-life situations. For example, ask them to help you determine when it's time to start cooking dinner or when it's time to leave for an appointment. Create a game where they have to race against the clock to complete a task. This will reinforce their understanding of digital clocks and time management.
