Visual Timer – Make Time Visible for Calm and Clarity A Clear and Calm Way to Understand Time This Visual Timer turns the abstract concept of time into something children can see. As the coloured disc gradually disappears, it shows how much time is left for an activity, perfect for helping kids transition between tasks, manage focus and reduce anxiety. Why It’s Helpful Many children (and adults) with autism, ADHD or anxiety struggle with time-related stress. Verbal countdowns often aren't enough. This timer provides a quiet, non-ticking, visual cue that supports independence, routine and predictability. It’s especially helpful for classroom transitions, homework sessions or calming breaks. How to Use It Turn the dial to set the desired amount of time (up to 60 minutes). The coloured portion will shrink as time passes. Use it for quiet work, reading, therapy activities, or screen time boundaries.
