Time Timer 3-Inch Visual Timer – 60-Minute Desk Countdown Clock for Kids, Classroom, and Home

Visual Time Management that Fits Everyday Routines

Time Timer Original 3" is a compact, reliable visual timer designed to help kids and adults see the passage of time at a glance. With the signature red disk that gradually disappears, tasks, transitions, and study blocks become more predictable and less stressful. The clear face is protected by a cover, and the lid doubles as a stand for flexible placement on a desk or shelf.

Set the timer by moving the red disk counter-clockwise to any duration up to 60 minutes. As time advances, the disk slowly disappears, offering a simple, at-a-glance cue of how much time remains. When the timer ends, you can use the optional end-of-cycle alert on the back—the choice is yours for quiet spaces or a gentle signal in busier environments. The included Dry Erase Activity Card (3 x 3 inches) lets you jot tasks or reminders and place it in the top slot for a visual reminder during work or study sessions.
