In October 1989, Jan was a busy mom with a curious kindergartner. Her daughter routinely asked questions about time: "How much longer. When will we go. How long is 15 minutes. When will dinner be ready." Jan, like many others, found explaining time to a 5-year old difficult, frustrating...okay, downright crazy-making.
After many years of dedicated work, solopreneurship turned into a team effort, and the vision of "being able to see time" eventually travelled around the globe. After 25 years, the same Time Timer Jan originally sketched on a legal pad can be found in classrooms, homes, therapy centres, restaurants, boardrooms, and factories around the world.
By turning the centre knob counterclockwise, the coloured disc can be set to the desired amount of time.
The timer automatically begins to count down with no loud ticking.
As time elapses, the coloured disc disappears. The Time Timer operates in a clockwise direction to replicate the movement of an analogue clock, and shows exactly how much time is left.
When you see time disappear, you can conquer it. When the red disc is gone, time is up! An optional alert is available.
The Time Timer is clinically proven to increase self-regulation in children. Whether it is school work, screen time, or chores, they are able to see how much time is left. Give them the confidence and independence to track their own time.
