  • Let Kids Follow Schedules with their 2 Minute Turtle Timer

    by Virginia Berman

    Time to prepare setting routines again. Part of what we love about kids is their ability to get lost in play, unaware of the time.

    So how can we make daily timed tasks, routines fun?  Must we rely on another device or app? No!  We have a simple solution-the visual timer.

    The Two Minute Turtle Timer is your partner in healthy habits,, starting with toothbrushing. Kids "own" it, their Turtle Timer, and with that,  their 2 minutes of toothbrushing.  The Turtle Timer is so adorable that some kids name it, tuck it into bed and take it on overnights.  No instructions needed. No formatting it. No privacy issues.

    Kids prepare to brush teeth, then simply press the big green rubber button. Follow the flashing flippers like Simon Says, to know which part of their mouth to brush until the next flipper blinks. By the end, kids brush each part until they have brushed their whole mouth. They love the reward of all turtle feet flashing at once when they brush their tongue. 

    Kids feel satisfaction with a job well done. Parents get more peaceful moments at bedtime--no nagging and the thrill of knowing their kids are learning to brush teeth well! 

    The Turtle Timer helps with kids' toothbrushing and other healthy routines like getting out the door in the morning, taking turns with a sibling or washing hands.  Show kids the lesson that healthy can AND slow and steady really can win the race!
