My son was very happy with this gift.  We have a rule that you must learn to read an analog watch before you can have a digital.  Anyway, he likes it and seems to understand the concept of the hour and minute hands.  My only complaint is that the minute hand covers up the minute numbers. Additionally the minute hand is in white but the hour numbers are in white while the minutes are in red.  This has been confusing for him- understandably.  If the hands and numbers were color coded, that would help lessen the confusion.  Overall it is a great concept and it's Disney, so kids love it but there are a few problems in the execution.
