Update: Timer stopped working already. Very disappointed because it was great for our daughter.
This has been perfect for us. My developmentally delayed daughter potty trained this summer. I didn’t want to be in charge of reminding her to go and she didn’t want to wear a watch.
Two hours is perfect. She’s turns it all the way and it’s 2 hours. She doesn’t need to understand any more than that. She loves being in charge of setting the timer and as a result when it goes off, she takes herself to the potty or just needs a gentle reminder like “I hear the timer beeping!”
Has helped her to be independent about toileting. Figure it’s a good bridge until she is willing to wear a watch.

Over 30 years ago, Time Timer inventor Jan Rogers’ youngest child struggled to make transitions from one daily routine to another.
Motivated to solve this universal problem, Jan created the Time Timer—an innovative, simple time management tool designed to “show” the passage of time through the use of a patented red disk. As time elapses, the red disk disappears—making common routines at work, school or home stress-free and enjoyable.

From the manufacturer
Jan Rogers, Founder & Inventor - Time Timer
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 traveled around the globe. After 25 years, the same Time Timer Jan originally sketched on a legal pad can be found in classrooms, homes, therapy centers, restaurants, boardrooms, and factories around the world.
How Time Timer Works
|
|
|
|
|
|---|---|---|---|
Easy to SetBy turning the center knob counterclockwise, the colored disk can be set to the desired amount of time. |
No Loud TickingThe timer automatically begins to count down with no loud ticking. |
Time Visually DisappearsAs time elapses, the colored disk disappears. The Time Timer operates in a clockwise direction to replicate the movement of an analog clock, and shows exactly how much time is left. |
Make Every Moment CountWhen you see time disappear, you can conquer it. When the red disk is gone, time is up! An optional alert is available. |

Works for me...
This timer has been great to keep focused on one project at a time. When I see it sitting nearby and know there’s only a certain amount of time allocated to work on something, I’m less likely to get sidetracked with something else. I can see many possible uses for this timer, from work projects to homework, or even exercise. With how many distractions most people have these days, this helps keep one’s attention on a single task. I think there’s something about seeing a physical timer that helps more than just setting a timer on a smartphone app.It’s easy to set an amount of time (up to 120 minutes) with a turn of the center dial. There’s a volume control dial on the back to adjust the alarm volume. One AA battery (not included) is required, and a small Phillips screwdriver is needed to open the battery door. The box also includes a “Make Time Notes” notepad to write down the main task you want to accomplish each day.I really like this product for helping to improve focus. I think it’s a simple but useful tool for being more effective with time and getting specific things done.
