I dont have any websites but I did play a time game with two children who were really struggling to grasp it and I found the game helped them alot. It took their minds of the worry of learning.

We each had a learning clock and I started to tell a story by putting the time on my clock to 7 o�clock and saying "there once was a girl called Sally who always woke up at 7 o'clock. One day she didnt wake up until 8 o'clock (moved my time to 8.00). Now I told the child next to me that it was her turn to continue with the story.

They loved the game and it seemed to relax them into a better frame of mind for learning.
