Customers Say

Customers love the Light-Up Countdown Timer for helping children ages 2-7 transition between activities with color-changing visual cues and develop time management skills independently. Parents and teachers find it effective for various settings, including classrooms, therapy sessions, and home routines, though some wish it displayed exactly how much time remains and used less battery power. Continuous blinking warning light may be distracting for light-sensitive users.

Great timer

My son has ADHD so getting ready in the morning can be really challenging. This timer gives him autonomy and the warning alarm lets him know it’s time to get his shoes on so that we leave on time. We have several timers and I think this has been his favorite.

Awesome timer!

This light up timer is perfect for my students! It works well with students to stay on task during their independent work time. Many other teachers have asked me where I got this timer after seeing how well it works with students.

Great product

This timer is a great tool for keeping track of activities. The only issue I have had is that my pre-k kiddos restart it so it had to be kept out of reach while in use!

Excellent

We use this timer everyday during my daughter's ABA. The warning brings her back to the table and she knows when it's red, it's time to get back to work. We love it and I'm getting ready to order two more for backups because the original one is starting to have some issues, but we have had it for over five years, so I am not complaining. Love this timer and I'm so glad I came across it.

Crucial for transitions!

This timer has been a lifesaver for preparing for transitions and keeping routine for our little guy. It helps with behavior, calms the overwhelm, and is such a great tool to use across multiple settings!

Easy

This timer has been a game-changer for managing writing prompts and timed activities in my classroom! I can set it for any duration, like 30 minutes, and customize warnings at any time, such as at the 10-minute mark (with 20 minutes remaining), which helps students know when to move from their outline to their actual writing. The lights and alarms are perfect for keeping students aware of how much time is left during timed tests and assignments. It’s incredibly easy to set up, taking just seconds, and it’s much simpler than digital alternatives. The alarm and color signals are clear and effective for all 30 students in a large classroom. I highly recommend this timer for teachers looking to manage time efficiently and keep students on track! (I was nervous the warning would give them anxiety but the opposite happened, they love having a warning before the timer goes off).

Great timer!

This is one of the best timers I've seen on the market. I have been looking for 2 years for one and haven't found one I've loved until I saw this one. I love how it flashes and beeps a warning and when time is up. I love the different time increments you can choose from as well. I'm very happy with this purchase!

The PERFECT timer

I love this timer so much. I use it daily in Kindergarten and the kids really take well to it. It is helpful on so many levels. The only thing is I would keep extra batteries on hand because it can get finicky if the batteries start to die!
