(u-s:b /flik flak) These perfectly rounded clocks are a real pleasure to touch and hold. The two side buttons are there just for fun and visual balance but the one on the top serves to light up the dial face for optimal readability in the dark... Just behind it is the on/off alarm switch for when you've heard enough of the pleasing tune, and a fourth button on the back opens and closes a door used for setting the time and the alarm – and changing the battery if required.
Developed with the help of learning specialists, the lively Flik Flak hands move around clearly defined hour and minute circles, spelled out with vivid "his 'n' hers" colours, figures and even dots. They give the clocks undeniable character and make them a useful educational tool that is endlessly entertaining.
Most of all, the secret of these clocks lies in their inimitable self-righting effect, meaning that they rock, roll and swing around when pushed, but always come right back to where they were before. How many objects (or people, for that matter) can boast that kind of stability?
And that brings us to a word of warning for kids: Adults, even the kind who normally say they hate alarm clocks, will also find it hard to resist this one! So keep it in a safe place...
