Review on Enhance Learning and Focus with ⏳ the Time Timer TWIST 90-Minute Digital Countdown Clock by Jaime Thomas

Kids Digital Visual Countdown

Do you know how hard it is to find a timer that:1. Has a visual countdown so kids can see how much time is left even if they can't count the numbers? 2. The visual mechanism is not only based on 60 minutes (or any other fixed time). You'd think it would be simple, even obvious, but it's as simple as that! Now I can set the timer for 10 minutes and the kids can see when they're halfway through, instead of squinting and trying to spot 1/6th and 1/12th of the remaining red bar (that's 10 minutes and 5 minutes on a 60 minute timer). . You twist the timer in your hands to set it, and for everything else there's a simple single start/pause button. That's all. It could only be better if it was bigger, had its own foothold, and if you could turn it off when not in use. I was really surprised you couldn't turn that thing off. It just stays at the level you last set it to. It would be nice if you flipped it over and it had already started counting down, instead of pausing and clearing the current timer, adding or removing minutes and continuing, but that's not really the case. What a big deal. I would use this feature quite often to add urgency when kids lose extra time due to inactivity.
