Time Timer RETRO - Green Land
This clever visual countdown timer comes in beautiful green tones and is made with at least 20% plant-based material derived from rice husks.
With a Time Timer, time becomes easy to see and understand—even if your child can’t tell the time yet.
Time shapes so much of our daily routine. But for many children (and some adults), it can feel confusing when everyone else seems to understand “quarter past four” or “11:45” and it just doesn’t quite click yet.
Whether it’s 20 minutes of comics before bed, 5 minutes of jumping jacks, or making math class feel more manageable, Time Timer helps keep things on track.
Comes in several different models.

What makes this product special
Toys for learning through play
Play is essential for children’s learning, well-being, and development. Through play, children learn about themselves and the world around them.
Play helps children:
• stay curious
• focus and become absorbed in what they're doing
• take on age-appropriate challenges
• build confidence
We believe children learn best by doing things for themselves:
• by making mistakes
• by getting messy
• by falling down and getting back up again
Resilience, confidence, and courage grow through experience, one small step at a time.
That's why we carefully choose toys that encourage independence, imagination, movement, and social skills — offering just the right balance of support, freedom, and opportunities to grow.

We carefully handpick every toy from the vast world of toys available today. The only toys that make it into our range are ones we'd be happy to give our own children.

Do you know Time Timer?
Having a good perception and understanding of time reduces stress and provides a sense of safety. The Time Timer makes time visual, and it's not necessary to tell time in order to know how the minutes are counting down.The concept of time is quite abstract, so in our opinion, the Time Timer is simply brilliant. It's clear to see from on the red disc (or blue on some models) how much time remains. The Time Timer is silent, and it's easy to follow the countdown.
You can choose between several Time Timer models. For example, Time Timers come as wristwatches, in large and small versions, and with different minute counts. 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 ultra quiet timers with no audible ticking.
This is how the classic Time Timer works:
The clock counts down, but the numbers also go down and clockwise instead of up.
It's quite logical. For instance, if you need to adjust the Time Timer to 25 minutes, so your child knows 25 minutes are left of the evening before they need to brush their teeth and hear a bedtime story, this is how you do it on the standard Time Timer:
Set the red disc so it covers 25 minutes. Now the dial is white from "12 o’clock" to where it normally would say "35 minutes" on a clock dial – because from "35" to "12 o’clock" is 25 minutes.
The smart thing about the Time Timer is that the clock 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 clock counts down from "25" instead of counting up from "35".
This means you need to adjust the standard (60 min) Time Timer to "25" when you want to count down from 25 minutes. After 5 minutes, 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.
