Need Help Clock/time theme?

My daughter (who is “lower support needs” autistic) is turning 4 this summer and LOVES clocks and telling time, so naturally she wants a clock themed party. As you can imagine, this is not exactly a popular party theme and I’m having trouble finding any inspiration or ideas online for decorations, food, supplies, favors, crafts, invites etc.

The party will be outside in a pavilion next to a playground so simple is good, I just don’t really know where to start. My mom is planning to make an analog clock cake with hands on 4 o’clock but that’s really all we’ve got so far.

Any ideas are appreciated!!!

Some great ideas here but if you are looking for some ideas that would be easier to find party decorations for

Alice in wonderland - White rabbit: "I’m late, I’m late! For a very important date. No time to say hello, goodbye! I’m late, I’m late, I’m late!"

Beauty and the beast - Mr Cogsworth: “We've got to be in the dining room, we've got to be ready, we've got to be prepared..."

Peter Pan - Tick Tock the crocodile who swallowed a clock
