Time Timer - Magnetic Pictograms, Classroom Set

Do you know Time Timer?

Your child becomes much more independent from being able to read a clock and manage their own time; for instance, when guests will arrive, when to leave the house, or when it's mealtime. On the Time Timer, you can see time counting down on the dial.

For instance, if your child has fifteen minutes to eat breakfast in the morning, then simply set your Time Timer to 15 minutes. The clock then counts down silently, and the coloured disc gradually shrinks.

We have several Time Timer models to choose from. You can get Time Timers as wristwatches, with different minute counts, and in various sizes. The Time Timer is also great for people with special needs. The larger models are suitable for bigger settings or for visually impaired users. They have high colour resolution and ultra quiet timers with no audible ticking.

The idea behind the 60-minute Time Timer
The clock counts down, but it goes clockwise and the numbers also go down instead of up.

It's quite logical. For instance, when you want to adjust the Time Timer to 25 minutes, so your child knows there are 25 minutes left of the evening before they need to brush their teeth and hear a bedtime story, this is how you do it on the Time Timer:

Adjust the red disc so it covers 25 minutes. Now the dial is white from "12 o’clock" to where it would say "35 minutes" on a dial – because from "35" to "12 o’clock" is 25 minutes.

The clever thing about the Time Timer is that the numbers are reversed. On the Time Timer, it doesn't say "35" when you set the timer to 25 minutes. It logically shows "25". And the clock counts down from "25" instead of counting up from "35".

So, this means you need to adjust the classic 60-minute Time Timer to "25" when you want to count down from 25 minutes. When 5 minutes have passed, the red disc shows 20 minutes, so it's clear to see that there are only 20 minutes left until it's time to get ready for bed.
