Let us face it; a clock is vital for any room, no matter if you are decorating your home or your office. More and more digital devices incorporate watches nowadays (just think of all the mp3 players, mobile phones and other digital equipment showing the time). However, what if you want a clock that does not require your permanent attention to tell you the time? In this case, a talking wall clock can be the perfect choice for you. What differentiates a talking wall clock from other types of wall clocks is that the first announces the time using a human voice. You do not have to go up and check the time; you will hear what time it is from the clock itself. It is one of the most convenient methods of finding out what time it is, as you can focus on something completely different and still hear the announcement.
Now it is up to you if you prefer a talking wall clock or a cuckoo clock announcing the time, but it is easier to find out the time from a human voice rather than listening to 12 cuckoo songs to know it is noon. Talking wall clocks have digital mechanisms (most of them show the time in digital form, but there also are classical looking types with a traditional round shape) and all you have to do is to put new batteries when they wear out. Most allow you to select if you want to hear the voice announcing the time hourly or from half to half hour. You can select to mute it at night, so you do not wake up in the middle of the night thinking that someone has broken in your house.
There are talking wall clocks for kids. Disney, for example, has released a series of talking wall clocks having cartoon characters and using their voices to tell the time. If you know that your kid (or someone else's kid, if you buy the clock as a gift) loves Disney cartoons, you can buy a Donald Duck or Mickey Mouse talking wall clocks. Children will just love them.
There also are talking wall clocks using famous actors' voice to tell the time. So if you like a certain movie or actor, shop around for a talking clock using voices from that film. Some clocks use quotes from famous movies or songs to tell the time can be the perfect gift idea for a friend or colleague who you know loves that movie (for example, there are Scarface talking clocks, Simpsons and The Godfather ).

You can buy talking wall clocks from online stores (almost all online shops that sell clocks have talking clocks on stock) or from the local brick and mortar clock store. Prices vary, but they are generally affordable, so everyone can buy a talking wall clock and place it in the house or at the office.
