Relaxing and incredibly visual, a great gift for those who are visually oriented! Each bubble liquid timer is 2 x 5.75 inch long with an hourglass shaped display. Once the colored drops have all reached the bottom, simply turn the liquid timer over to restart the action. Color choice based on availability.

Fun and calming, December 27, 2011

My son was using this in counseling to keep his hands and eyes busy while he would talk. This prompted me to purchase it for him at home and not only does he love it, but his dad and I do too! It's captivating to watch the bubbles flow and change. I'm thinking of getting another one just to keep on my desk!
I originally bought this for my son but he didn't seem to take to it right away. When I purchased this I was a preschool teacher so I took it to school. It was a great tool with my kids. It works as a visual calming tool and a timer. So I knew that they had sat and calmed down for approx 2 minutes when needed.
This is a great product for calming my son down, occupying him in the car, and to play with. The only thing I would change would be to increase the amount of time each flip takes. Make it a 2 minute timer and it would be perfect!
Great for settling 3-6year olds! In our classroom, only one was broken in 12 months! Engaged most for > 5 minutes - time enough to settle their heart rates!
Our 3-6 year olds progressed from the simpler timer version above to these versions. No classroom breakages in 12 months. Very settling when added to our 'peace' area.
