Learn to Tell Time with Alfons Åberg
A cozy and educational game featuring Gunilla Bergström’s beloved character Alfons Åberg. The game contains ten small ‘puzzles’ with two pieces each, where the child must match the time on a digital clock with the same time on a classic clock with hands. The included cardboard clock also allows children to move the hands themselves and practice different times.
In a simple and playful way, the game helps children understand time and learn to tell the clock. At the same time, it trains concentration, logical thinking, fine motor skills, and the ability to find connections. The game contains 20 pieces and is suitable for children from three years old.
Alfons Åberg is the beloved character created by Swedish author and illustrator Gunilla Bergström. The first book about Alfons was published in 1972, and since then, the thoughtful and imaginative boy has become part of many children’s upbringing. Alfons lives with his father, and the stories are about the small and big experiences of everyday life that children can easily recognize.
Gunilla Bergström’s distinctive illustrations are created in a fine blend of drawing, painting, and collage. She used cutouts from fabric, wallpaper, and newspapers, which gives the illustrations their lively and unique expression. With warmth, humor, and great understanding of the child’s world, she created a timeless universe that still delights both children and adults.
