The band is stretchy and fits any wrist. My grandson, 2 1/2 years old, is enjoying learning about time. It has a hour, minute and second hand, all in different colors so it is easy to distinguish each. The little car attached to the second hand does not block the view of the numbers. Other watches have something attached to the second hand that blocks the view of the numbers. I wanted my grandson to be able to see all the numbers all the time.

A great purchase!

I purchased this watch for my young grandson on his 4th Birthday. With the help of his mother and the marked hands on the watch he is already telling time. The hands are marked to show him which is the minute hand and which is the hour hand, how to tell it is 15 minutes past or 15 minutes to etc. He loves his watch and is very proud that he is telling time in only a short time that his mother has been teaching him.

A great buy for a child who wants to tell the time.

Purchased for my 5 year old grandson.....he starts school this week and has not taken the watch off since we gave it to him. He really thinks he is a Big Boy now. He continues to learn about time on a daily basis. Plan on getting him another one for Christmas......maybe the camo?? If you want to be the FAVORITE Granpa....buy this!

My son is 4, and may be a little young to start learning to tell time. But he really wanted a watch, so grandma bought him this one last Christmas.

This watch has all the elements of a great beginner time piece. First, I LOVE that it is not digital. It was hard to find a kids watch with an actual clock face. The Hour and Minute hands are labeled and colored differently. The second hand and little red car travel around the watch to count down the seconds. The watch face itself is divided in half to separate "Past" and "To", to help kids more easily distinguish between (for example) "quarter past" the hour vs "quarter til" the hour. The band is stretchy stain and water resistant fabric which helps with sizing and protects against the rough and tumble life of an active kids. And, my son's most favorite feature, the indiglo light up face!

This watch is well made, and the band is designed with colorful cars and trucks. And you can't go wrong with Timex.

I would probably recommend this for kids a little older than my son. While he loves it and wears it often, I think it something he will definitely grow into in a couple of years.

My 5 year old was very excited about receiving this watch as a birthday gift, and equally distraught when it failed within 30 days. The crystal scratches easily. The watch is supposed to be waterproof to 99 feet and the case was never opened; but the crystal was full of moisture bubbles after he swam with it on (and he was at the surface at all times - not nearly 99 feet). Needless to say the thing stopped working shortly thereafter.

I bought this watch for my young relative last spring. He still has it and wears it often. He seems to really like the designs (he's four and loves cars and numbers). His mom said that the minute/second hands and markings were helpful when teaching how to read a clock.

My kids really love the Timex Kids' Time Teacher watches - we have one with a purple monkey stretch band and one with a blue band with cars and trucks. We looked around for the longest time before finding these watches - our kids wanted watches, but we really struggled to find simple, inexpensive analog kids' watches (you'd think it would be pretty simple!).

PROS
+ display is very easy to read

+ band has cool and interesting graphics on it that kids want to wear

+ inexpensive watch

+ your kids learn to tell time with a real watch

+ durable watch

+ watch is easy to put on

CONS
- Not all of the watches seem to have a second hand

- Not all of the watches are as legible as others

- No date feature on the watch

All in all, very much recommend the Timex Kids Time Teacher Purple Monkey as well as Timex Kids Time Teacher Blue Cars and Trucks Stretch Band Watches, as well as others of the same basic design from Timex.

My kids really love these watches - we have one with a monkey stretch band and one with a blue one with cars.

My 2 year old son wanted a red watch. I shopped around and found this cute watch on Amazon. The watch was delivered fast and my son loves it. It keeps great time and is quite durable. The second hand has a car on it and the band is adjustable elastic. He had the watch for a year now and it hasn't skipped a minute. Another great find on Amazon.

What's not to love about this watch? It's very affordable and really cute too. And the best part is, it is a time teacher watch. My 5 year old son has learned to tell time from this watch the old fashioned way (no digital). Gotta love that. You have the Timex brand behind it too. Even if it gets lost or broken, you haven't spent a small fortune. I purchased a second one just in case.... Two thumbs up!
