Aramazu's product range is built around a story-led journey around the clock face, combining illustrated books, child-sized watches, wall clocks and classroom practice clocks so that children can move from storybook to real hands in one continuous thread. Every hard copy book arrives with a card practice clock, allowing a pupil to follow the narrative on the page while simultaneously tracing the positions of the hour and minute hands with a finger. Audio story CDs accompany the book packages, so the tale can be read aloud or listened to at home, in the car or in a classroom corner, reinforcing vocabulary and sequence before any numeracy drilling begins. The approach is designed to be tactile and visually led, appealing to young learners who are still acquiring the idea of numerals and their relationship to a full circle of twelve, and it places the emphasis on understanding rather than memorisation.

Watches and wall clocks
The Aramazu Mountain Watch and the Aramazu Mountain Wall Clock carry the mountain story from the page into everyday life. Once the story makes sense to a child, seeing the same shapes and movements on a real clock face reinforces what the books have taught.
For classroom use, magnetic practice clocks let several children work on the clock face together while the teacher works through the story with the class.
