Draw a Clock
Draw a clock face showing a specified time - a classic cognitive assessment.

- Cognitive Focus
- Visuospatial construction and executive planning - placing numbers, sizing hands, and setting the shown time on a clock face.

- Difficulty
- No difficulty settings
- Play Mode
- Solo-friendly
Why Choose This Activity
Draw a Clock fits Memory Care when clinicians or caregivers want a familiar visuospatial task with a clear target time shown at the top. There is no rush - the timer only records elapsed time. Finished drawings can be reviewed and replayed later on the Granted Light user website.
Classic clock-drawing format with adjustable support (guidelines, custom time) and stroke replay for later review.
How It Plays
A target time appears at the top (for example 3:10). Draw a circle, place numbers 1–12, and add hour and minute hands from the centre - the shorter hour hand near the hour, the longer minute hand at the minute mark (each number is five minutes). Drawing starts on the first stroke. Tap Done when finished.
Settings & Difficulty
Levels: No difficulty settings
- Operator: custom or random time, guidelines (None / Circle / Full), clear drawing
- Pen thickness options; timer starts on first stroke
- Stroke capture enables replay on the Granted Light user website
Facilitator Tips
- Use Operator to set a custom time or pick random before the person begins.
- Guidelines can be None, Circle only, or Full (circle plus faint numbers) for extra support.
- Remind players that ten minutes points at the 2 on the clock face.
- Undo removes the last stroke; Operator can also clear the canvas for a fresh attempt.
- Finished clocks are saved for review and replay at user.grantedlight.care.
