Everything you need to know
Description
“Just five more minutes.” Then three. Then one. Somehow the end still seems to arrive without warning. The Clarikind Visual Timer makes that last stretch something your child can watch. Set it together while there's still time to enjoy the activity.
From another warning to a shared finish.
During screen time, drawing or a short homework task, the changing dial stays in sight. When your child asks again, you can look at the same countdown. It doesn't promise that every change will feel easy. It gives the change a place in the room before it happens.
Choose your first countdown.
Try a short activity that already has a natural ending. Agree what comes after it, then start the timer together. Choose the colour that feels right for your space. If your child needs to see which job comes next rather than the time left, the Visual Timetable is the better starting point.

Product details, guidance & comparisons
“Five more minutes” means nothing to a child who’s having fun. Set the Clarikind visual timer together before screen time, homework or getting ready to leave. Your child watches the time run down, and you can point to the timer instead of carrying the whole countdown in your voice.
Why seeing time helps
- Time they can see: the countdown shows what’s left, so the end doesn’t come as a shock.
- Fewer spoken reminders: point to the countdown as it moves.
- Screen time with a clear end: agree the time first, then let the timer call it.
- Leaving the house without the surprise: set it while there’s still time to get ready.
- Homework in short blocks: when they can see the finish, the task feels less endless.
Which time problem does it solve?
Choose the Visual Timer when the question you keep hearing is “how much time is left?”. If it’s “what happens next?”, the Visual Board is the better fit. For mornings that need both answers at once, the Morning Routine System combines the two.
Visual Timer or spoken countdown alone?

| Everyday use | One timer for homework, play and leaving | Repeat the time reminders during each activity |

Contact us before returning a product. Eligibility, return costs and any hygiene or digital-content exceptions are explained in our Returns & Refunds Policy. Your rights for faulty or misdescribed goods are unaffected.
Will my child actually use it?
Set it together before the activity starts, so the ending is agreed in advance. No timer makes every ending easy, but a visible one gives you both the same reference instead of another argument.
