subject: The Particular Style Of The Flik Flak Watch [print this page] The FlikFlak boys watches is characterized in particular by the fact that the fun characters Flik and Flak imaginatively teach children to learn to read the time. But what or who exactly is actually behind Flik Flak?
The big brother and the little sister
When you look at the dial of the FlikFlak watch childrens watches you will soon discover two figures. Here, the developers of the watch have chosen a brother and sister pair. Alongside big brother Flik, there is little sister Flak. Big brother Flik, whose favorite colors are blue and white, sits on top as a blue and white minute hand. It takes him 1 minute to travel on the matching middle circle from one number to the next. However, he needs a whole hour to return to his starting point at 60. Meanwhile, his little sister Flak, dressed in her favorite color red, moves on slowly and reliably as the hour hand, pointing out the colorfully-styled full hour numbers one after the other. She then needs a full 12 hours to get back to her starting position. As Flik and Flak share the time tasks in this manner, they form a good team to playfully teach the kids the time.
The fun pursuit shows the time
Brother Flik is bigger and older than his sister Flak and therefore can of course run much faster. He moves around the 60 minute dial, while his smaller sister Flak moves more slowly because of her shorter legs and always moves forward 1 hour. They run, as if they were playing catch with one another, whereby each step the two take, shows the time. Flak, the little girl, is the hour hand on the girls watches, which the children should read first. Then Flik as big brother shows the minutes. And that is how you read the time!
Nowadays, there is a clock included as part of every normal product package, with which children can play and thus easily learn to read the time while playing, by using the colored background given to the time. Of course, parents can join in with this fun game and set the hands of the clock to a certain time. Then the child can, with help from Flik and Flak, easily find out what time can be seen on the clock at that moment.
