The Visual Countdown Timer from Sensory Sensations displays the passing of time in an easy-to-read format. Suitable for all ages, it is useful for time management and to reduce anxiety associated with uncertainty and transitioning between activities. The time disc can be set up to 60 minutes. It may be moved manually in either direction and set at any point on the face.
This timer provides the ability to easily judge how much time is left, without knowing how to tell time. The product has large dial numbers, an easy to turn knob to set the desired amount of time, and ultra quiet movement. When time is up, there is a clear and loud “beep-beep” sound to signal the end of a time segment.
It is an ideal product for students with ADD, ADHD, autism, etc.; counselling situations; occupational and physical therapy sessions; stroke and brain injury rehabilitation; and geriatric care. Users understand the passage of time and can monitor their own activities, improving their self-esteem. Better time awareness also relieves the stress and anxiety of disorientation.
