what parents are saying
It's important for kids to learn the concept of time and be able to get a sense of how long say, 5 minutes is. This visual timer is really good for preschoolers. (Oct 17, 2020)

This is a must for kiddos! Toddlers don’t understand the concept of time, so it’s great to have a visual for them to see how much time is left. Mar 29, 2023

Great for toddlers who can't tell time as they can visually see how much time is left. You just need to put this out of reach as my 3 year old tends to extend the timer out for an hour before daycare. Aug 17, 2022

I learned about this product from a teacher. Visual timers can help children understand the concept of time. Children can independently complete activities for a given amount of time. Nov 11, 2021
