Very sturdy

I've used this timer for kindergarten last year and TK this year. It is sturdy and has held up to being dropped. The kids like to use it to help them take turns with activities during choice time.

Two thumbs up

This timer is a great size. I can see it from across my classroom. My students are able to use it and self monitor their time. I would recommend it for anyone that needs the perfect timer.

Time-out / Cool-down Timer

My toddler boys use this whenever they need to cool-down in their room. I let my sons take the timer to their room, they flip it over to start the time, and when it's done they bring the timer back with a happy face. They have control over the timer and it helps them to see how the time passes. They can turn it on its side to pause the time if they need take a bathroom break.

Great large visual timer to aid with waiting, turn taking, and transitions within the classroom. My preschool special education students really respond to the visual timer. I love this product!

Perfect for tiny hands

I use these all of the time in my classroom. They are well made and perfect for young learners. I have them all over the room for kids to grab if they need to set a timer for something.

Perfect for take a break space

The 5 minute timer is what my students use for their break time in the calm corner area. It is very easy to use as a visual for all ages. My kindergarten students understood that when all the sand dropped, their break time was over.

5 Minutes

This is one of the best classroom management tools. I use it for sharing toys, I use it for clean up and 5 minute warnings, I use it "race" the timer to get ready for recess.
