Telling time in French

Since you have to explain to your children that the time has changed due to DST, you might as well introduce them to telling time in French. :)

Here are a few of the expressions you'll need to start teaching time.

Quelle heure est-il? - What time is it?
Il est une heure. - It's 1 o'clock.
Il est trois heures et demie. - It's 3:30.
Il est quatre heures et quart. - It's 4:15.
Il est cinq heures moins quinze. - It's 4:45.
Il est midi. - It's noon.
Il est minuit. - It's midnight.
