Please do not waste your money on this clock. It looked really cute on the website and cheap. Well, it's cute and definitely cheap !!It's about a 1/4 " thick pressed cardboard . There is no edging around the face, nothing covering the face. Basically, they took a paper plate, put a face and hands on it . Oh and it's not a problem with the battery, but it stops working whenever it feels like it. That could be 5 minutes or 5 days. Just reset it and it works for a little while again. I am going to take the battery out of it and teach. my grandson how to tell time. lol
