Gifts for grandchildren well-received!

I homeschool my kids and bought these to help keep them on task with a time visual for some of their schoolwork. We used them today and they were great. They are a good size and seem solid. Their times were very accurate and so far I haven’t had any issues with the sand getting clogged like I have with some of our cheaper and smaller ones of other brands for hand washing/teeth brushing.

I purchased this for an elderly friend: her dentist prescribed a special toothpaste that requires a solid two minute brushing. This egg timer is perfect - it has a SOLID base - won't tip over easily. Most egg timers are much smaller: this one seems rugged!

We had previously purchased a different brand of large (6.5" x 3.25") 5 and 15 minute sand timers to use with our kids to help them judge time when assigned tasks. They worked so well, we picked up a pair of these timers in 30 and 45 minutes. So far they seem to be reasonably accurate and durable. The only slightly negative thing I can say is that they are smaller than the description says. Instead of 6.3" x 3.4", they're actually 5" x 2.5". You can see the difference in the photo between one of these timers (yellow) and the one we previously purchased (blue). In case you're wondering, this is definitely NOT a deal breaker for us. They're still easy to see across the room and should be useful in helping our kids track TV and tablet time.

This thing is bigger than I expected. I think that’s a good thing. My son has responded very well to a sand timer for teeth brushing and mouth wash so I’d like to encourage that by giving him a timer he thinks looks cool. He likes orange so this is perfect.

Exactly what I needed to help my kiddo keep track of time

This is working really well training a 6 yr old time management

Purchased this timer to remind me to put my Invisalign trays back on, after meals. Liked the size and availability of 30-min increment, and liked one less buzzer/ping/chime. This looked big enough to see from across the room. Arrived in great condition. It took 5+ mins of coaxing to get the sand flow started, and I assumed it had ‘packed’ during shipping. Not once all day did it ever flow when inverted to begin timing. It required much attention (tapping or setting down with impact over and over) to get the sand started and to finally flow til empty. I wanted it to work. It’s old-school. After 10 uses I got frustrated and returned.
