Cuckoo clock
From Wikipedia, a free encyclopedia written in simple English for easy reading.
A cuckoo clock is a kind of clock. It gets its name because at the top of every hour, a small door on the clock opens up and a little bird comes out of it. The bird makes a noise which sounds like "Koo-Koo" or "cuckoo".
The bird makes the sound one time for each hour it is. Whether it is morning or night does not change the number of times the bird makes the sound. For example:
- 1 o'clock in the afternoon = 1 "cuckoo"
- 8 o'clock in the morning = 8 "cuckoos"
- 8 o'clock at night = 8 "cuckoos"
