Sand Timer - 6 Pack Colorful Hourglass for Classroom, Home, Office

These timers are excellent. Quality well beyond my expectations. Solid, functional and attractive. Excellent value for money.

I bought these as a visual prompt for my 7 year old, to help her to manage her time more effectively with every days tasks such as eating, getting dressed, and having a shower etc. There are 6 different lengths of time, which cover most of the tasks, but can be turned over if more time is needed. The timers are of good quality and appear to be very robust, (having survived being dropped down the stairs on a couple of occasions!). Good value and great quality - they do the job they were designed for!

I am a teacher and bought these for school. They are lovely and vibrant so look aesthetically pleasing on my shelf. They are a little smaller than I was expecting and I haven’t checked their accuracy. They are a great visual marker for my students of time remaining on a task but I also use them myself during PPAs to divide my time between tasks. When they arrived I had one of the plastic ends loose. I popped it back on meaning to glue it back on but it has stayed in place without glue. The sand colours are vibrant and the glass seems substantial.

I bought these sand timers for my 4 year old and my 7 year old. My 4 year old has trouble sharing and staying on the naughty step, however if he knows he just has to stay in the corner until the sand has finished pouring out, that makes it easier for him to understand. He can also share with his sister if he knows that he will get his turn when the sand has finished and then we turn the sand timer over and he's allowed his allocated time. With my 7 year old, the school told us that they should be able to do 15 minutes bursts of concentration at a time. The 15 minute timer is an indication to her when she can stop her daily reading or take a break from her homework. The price is fantastic, they come in a range of colours, which the kids love. It has really helped my kids to have this visual aid to manage their time. I would highly recommend them.

Great product, at a good price 👍

Bought these for Homeschooling for my 7 year old as he was having trouble with concentration when he had been asked to produce a piece of writing. I'd read that diners can help and we have been using a few of these, especially the 5 minute timer per sentence or question etc. It has really helped him to improve on how long it was taking as for a 7 year old, it was taking him over an hour and a half to write a few lines but now he writes 3 times that amount in around 45 mins to an hour and he has done really well! Loads of uses for these and he liked that they are all different colours and can be for young children olup to adulthood for cooking, all sorts!

I use these timers for my child who has Autism and they are great. I’ve seen in some pictures that the caps on the top of the timers came off but so far I’ve not had that issue. They look great but keep in mind they are small. Only thing I’m worried about is that they are glass and will break if they are dropped.

Very good quality but so small, does state sizes but picture makes them seem bigger. Made of glass too
