46. Tell time using the sun

While people use clocks or even phones to tell time today, there was a time when a sundial was the best means to do that. Kids can create their own sundials using everyday materials like cardboard and pencils or even LEGO bricks. Take the creations outside and make observations and different times of the day and how the sun dial works to show time.
