Telechron

Okay kiddo, have you ever seen a clock that is electric and uses a power cord instead of just batteries? That kind of clock is called a Telechron clock.

Just like how we need food to give us energy, the Telechron clock needs electricity to work. It has a little motor inside of it that makes the hands on the clock move. The electricity flows through the power cord and into the clock to make it work.

The Telechron clock was invented a long time ago, way before smartphones and fancy gadgets were invented. People used it to tell time and make sure they were on time for important events like school or work.

Nowadays, some people still like to use Telechron clocks as decorations or to add a vintage touch to their homes. And that's pretty much it, kiddo. A Telechron clock is just an electric clock that needs electricity to work and helps people tell time. Easy-peasy, right?
