Is today a school day? When will my birthday come again? I brushed my teeth for fifty hours, can I stop now? Are you bombarded with these or similar time-related questions all day long? As kids grow, they become more aware of the concept of time, but for them, an hour can still seem like an eternity. So how, then, to explain how long a month or year is?

All our little ones are steeped in time talk these days -- the cheerful exchanges of "Happy New Year!" on the street, the "Wow, can you believe the year is over?!" they hear their parents say again and again, the new calendars broken out all over the house. But these are kids who are still beginning their grasp of how time works -- what is all this "year" stuff, anyway? Here are our best ways to explain it!
