Abstract
Parents and teachers are well aware that young children often struggle to understand andinterpret traditional clocks, making it difficult for them to manage their daily schedules. This lackof time management skills can affect the development of important habits related to sleeping,studying, eating, and playing. Without the ability to manage their time independently, childrenmust rely on caregivers or parents to organize their routines, which hinders the development ofresponsibility.
To address these challenges, we propose Chroni: a fun and interactive tool designed to teachchildren under the age of six about time management. Unlike traditional clocks with numeralsand hands, Chroni uses symbols and color-coded segments to represent daily activities, makingit easier for children to understand what they should be doing at different times of the day.These engaging visual indicators provide a child-friendly approach, allowing kids to follow theirroutines without needing to read a conventional timepiece, fostering independence, andhelping them learn time management in a playful, accessible way.
The design of Chroni is intentionally simple, playful, and intuitive, featuring bright colors andfriendly icons that naturally attract young children. Its day-and-night routine board displays dailytasks with glowing indicators to guide children through their activities.
By turning routines into a fun, hands-on experience, Chroni helps children develop a sense oftime, build independence, and gain confidence while establishing healthy daily habits in anengaging, screen-free way.
