Time Timer - Magnetic Pictograms, Everyday

Do you know Time Timer?

Being able to perceive and understand time reduces stress and increases safety. With the Time Timer, time is visualised, and it's not necessary to tell time in order to grasp how the minutes are counting down.

For example, if your child has 15 minutes to get some breakfast in them, then simply set your Time Timer to 15 minutes. Then, the timer goes down silently, and the blue/red disc gradually gets smaller and smaller.

There are several Time Timer models to choose from. Time Timers are made as wristwatches, with different minute counts, and in various sizes. The Time Timer is also great for children and adults with special needs. The bigger models are suitable for bigger settings or for visually impaired users. They have high colour resolution and silent timers without ticking.

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

It's very logical. For instance, if you need to adjust the Time Timer to 25 minutes, so your child knows there are 25 minutes left of the evening before lunchboxes need to be packed and toes need to be scrubbed before bedtime, this is how it's done on the Time Timer:

Set 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 the face of a regular clock – because from "35" to "12 o’clock" is 25 minutes.

The clever thing about the Time Timer is that the dial is reversed. On the Time Timer, it doesn't say "35" when you set the timer to 25 minutes. It logically shows "25". And the red disc counts down from "25" rather than counting up from "35".

This means you need to adjust the Time Timer to "25" when you want to count down from 25 minutes. After 5 minutes, the red disc will show "20" minutes, so it's clear that there are only 20 minutes left before bedtime.
