## Questions & Answers

**Q: Can I buy one of the shapes separately? We lost one.**
A: Hi......Unfortunately those are cut to order and we do not have any extra pieces. Sorry about that.

**Q: Would this clock be suitable for a 6 year old, or is it for younger children?**
A: The "toy" part (putting the shapes in the holes, number matching) is probably meant for a younger child who is just learning numbers and shapes.  But if you're looking for a bright, colorful toy to teach a 6 year old how to tell time on a non-digital clock I think this could be good.  Next to the standard numbers on the clock are the actual correlating minutes (under the 1 is a small 5, under the 6 is a small 30, etc).  Overall I'd probably look elsewhere for a 6 year old toy though.

**Q: If positioned so that the face is facing horizonally, will the hands remain where placed, or will they tend to fall down to 6:30?**
A: Hands have stayed where placed.

**Q: Do the hands make noise when you move them?**
A: No, the hands do not make noise when moved. (Although that would be a great feature for it to have...a ticking sound to indicate the seconds.)
