Questions
Wee ones (counting on fingers): If you have the duck clock, and you let the alarm quack for 4 minutes today and 5 minutes tomorrow morning, how many minutes of quacking do you hear?
Little kids: You have Clocky, the clock on wheels that rolls away from you so you have to chase it to turn it off. If it makes a loud beep every 2 seconds, including when it goes off, and you chase it for 8 seconds, how many times does it beep by the time you catch it? Bonus: What if it takes you a whole minute to shut it off?
Big kids: You have that alarm clock that shoots off a rocket, and it won’t stop beeping till you put the rocket back in place. If it shoots the rocket at 6:49 am, and it takes you 8 minutes to find the blasted thing and put it back, what time is it when you finally succeed? Bonus: What if it takes you 17 minutes?
