Kindergarten clocks

The activity is accessed by clicking on the clock in the classroom (left: 1994 version; right: 1997 version).

The Clock is an activity in JumpStart Kindergarten (1994) and JumpStart Kindergarten (1997). It is accessed by clicking on the clock in the school's classroom. It is intended to teach telling time to kindergarten students.

Premise and description[]

Clock is a simple activity in which the user may view what happens in a typical kindergartner's life (in this case, Bonnie Bunny) at different times of day. Bonnie tells the user what happens during that hour when the user clicks on a specific number on the clock (A.M or P.M). The images feature Bonnie Bunny doing everyday activities and interacting with other anthropomorphic rabbits. Her father has the design of the 1994 version of Mr. Hopsalot in JumpStart Kindergarten (1994), even in the 1997 version.

Different times may be viewed by clicking on the numbers on the clock and the AM/PM switch. It contains no difficulty levels and, when not played in conjunction with Bebop's Home, will not earn the user stars in the 1998 version.

When played in conjunction with Bebop's game, Bebop will hide in a certain time which the player must find.
