Tell The Time
http://www.adders.org/freeware/telltime.html
Tell The Time
Based on an idea received from Susan Alastair. Basically in the game you click a Question button and the time is spoken to you (plus shown on screen). You then have to set the hands to the right time and you score points for getting it right. There are 3 levels of difficulty.
On the first the questions are only O'clock, quarter to/past and half past the hour. Level 2 adds 5, 10 past etc., questions and level 3 is the minutes in between. There is also a Practice level where you can set the hands to any time and hear the time spoken to you and there is a certificate to print out too.

Calendopaedia - The Encyclopaedia of Calendars
http://www.geocities.com/calendopaedia/
Welcome to THE source of data on calendars.
Since the dawn of civilisation man has kept track of time by use of the sun, the moon, and the stars. Man noticed that time could be broken up into units of the day (the time taken for the earth to rotate once on its axis), the month (the time taken for the moon to orbit the earth) and the year (the time taken for the earth to orbit the sun).
