Time Timer Silent Silicone MOD Kitchen Timer

Super-easy to set and use. One tool – many uses. Useful for both family and business time management. 4-beep alarm is just shy of annoying – it can’t be ignored and isn’t grating enough to make you want to throw it across the room.

After months of breakfasts ending in frustration, yelling, and tears, we discovered the Time Timer, a 60-minute timer with a visible red disk that slowly disappears as time runs out. We’d tried timers before, of course — our phones, Alexa, even an old analog egg timer. But especially for kids who haven’t quite grasped numbers yet, that’s all just some confusing pantomime before grown-ups cruelly snatch their food away. With the Time Timer, time is no longer just some abstraction that’s arbitrarily measured out by adults and robots, and safely ignored. They can see it now. Like nothing else, watching that red circle shrink into ever-smaller slices motivates my kids to finish before it’s gone.

Price. Expensive for such a simple device. But more than worth it for what it has done for us. Paper versions can get folded. Accuracy – only accurate to +or- 2 minutes (not for time sensitive cooking and timing etc)
