"An innovative and excellent way of depicting the passage of time
visually. I feel that this is a must for every home and classroom."
- Dr. Diane Twachtman-Cullen, nationally known educator and speaker
"I have seven students (six with autism and one who has Downs
Syndrome). I like using the Time Timer with my students because it
does not disturb the others, some of whom are extremely noise
sensitive." - Special Education Classroom Teacher
"I have a whole group of students in my resource room that would
greatly benefit from the Time Timer. What a wonderful product." -
Education Resource Consultant
"I just wanted you to know that your Time Timer has been very
beneficial and popular. Well be ordering more for our schools.
People are fighting over the one we have!" - Teacher
"Thank you so much for your wonderful product... I am not only using
your product with special needs children, but with my own at home
too! I have high hopes of taking away some stress of homework time
and practicing the piano." - Teacher
"I just wanted to let you know I received the Time Timers yesterday
and have already sent back the broken ones. Thanks again for such
prompt, wonderful service. This truly has been an unique experience.
I'm a very satisfied customer!" - Teacher
"We received the new timer and the boys were excited. It actually
ended up being a bit of a social skills lesson. When we first were
having trouble getting it to work, I asked them what they thought I
should do. They did not think a company would listen if we told them
about the difficulties. They thought it was really neat that a
company would stand behind their product like you have and that all
you have to do is communicate respectfully (I teach a group of
Emotional/Behavioral Disability students). Thanks for being so
prompt and helpful and for helping my students see that you can get
help from others when there are problems without needing to get
really "mad." I will definitely recommend your company and timers to
others." - Teacher
"Hello! I really like my Time Timer, what a great idea/concept! My
students (I teach kindergarten) like it because it allows them to
tell how much time is left during an activity...even though they
can't tell time! It is wonderful!" - Teacher
"Your Time Timers are an integral part of my classroom. They are
placed in every station in my classroom and my students have learned
how to set them themselves. The response to this self regulating,
visual system has been remarkable, reducing transition challenges
profoundly. For one student in particular, it facilitated a major
behavioral breakthrough, making the impending transitions
understandable and tolerable. We even take our Timetimers with us
for outside activities! I am attempting to accomplish purchasing
them for my students to use for home activities." - Teacher
"I have been using your Time Timer software for several years when
administering science labs, SAT testing, timed classroom
presentations, etc. Both teachers and students find it easy to use
and view. A great professional tool for classroom use." - Teacher
"I have used one of your Time Timers in my classroom for a number of
years with great success. My students like it a great deal, even
those who need the challenge of slowing down and doing a good job
rather than a rushed job. Two colleagues bought them on my
recommendation!" - Teacher

"My sister likes the Personal Time Timer and has already seen great
improvement in her daughter Meagans ability to make sense of time.
Meagan is excited about being responsible, in fact, she times her
mother and father regularly!" - Parent
"This is the perfect idea for people with Alzheimer's Disease who
ask 'how much time to go' questions, over and over. Congratulations
on a great product." - Family Member
"Our daughter Cathie received the Time Timer today and it is a great
success. Her little boy...who is six and has Asperger's Syndrome
knew straight away how it worked, while Cathie was still trying to
figure it out! Alex has great trouble knowing how much time has
elapsed and the visual movement of the time passing is an enormous
help to him." - Grandmother
"I was out yesterday due to my 5 yr. old being sick anyway. The new
timer works great and has made a serious improvement on getting the
kids to bed at nite and nap time on weekends, out of the house in
the mornings for the school bus pickup and/or off to daycare. My 3
year old actually ASKS me to set the timer to 15 minutes when I tell
him it's time to get ready for ... . Sometimes I ask him how much
time he needs to do something and he will point to the timer and say
the number of minutes (it's usually 15 to 25 minutes). So again,
Thank you." - Parent
"Thank you for such a wonderful and useful product. My son has
autism and has found this a very useful resource. Today I have just
ordered another desk top timer and a pocket timer. My son has been
taking the timer to school, the class teacher has said that there
has been a dramatic improvement in my son's ability to do and
complete activities. I forgot to take the timer this week and a few
of the other children and the teacher said that they really missed
the timer as it helped them too. Hence the additiobal order!!! Thank
you again!" - Parent
"I want to thank you for such a great concept - this timer is
'priceless' in my son's preschool with the the children as well as
home. Visualization of time before actual learning is great when
children anticipate an event or when it is time for parents to pick
them up from a morning at school." - Parent
"I received the Time Timer yesterday afternoon. We've already used
it half-dozen times, and my 4 and 7 year old really respond to this
type of "timer". The ability to "visualize" an allotted amount of
time really makes an impact! Thanks for this fantastic, genius
product!!! Your communication and customer service are top rate!" -
Parent
"I'm looking forward to getting the replacement personal timer that
I can carry around with me. My 3.5 year old and I are really
enjoying our regular timer. I can see how it's helping her learn the
concept of elapsed time and deadlines. As an adult with ADD who has
been chronically late her entire life, I can also say that the
visual depiction of time is helping me. I use it mainly when I'm
getting ready for work, and I can tell a difference in my time
perception. It's amazing that something so basic can help so much.
You have an amazing invention, and I appreciate your sharing it with
us. I work with adults with brain injuries who have similar time
management issues, and I'm telling everyone I know about the
timetimer. Once I get my personal timer, I can take it around to my
client visits and team meetings where I can show it off to both
clients and treatment professionals. Maybe it will generate some
orders for you." - Parent
" I just wanted to thank you for your terrific product. Your timer
has greatly aided my husband and I in getting our two-year old
daughter in to bed and nap time and at bed time. Of course, no
product would do the trick without behavioral follow-up, but she can
easily comprehend that the "red time" is "going away." It only took
us two nights of tantrums at bedtime when all her time was gone
before she learned the connection between the timer and our
insistence that she get in bed. Although this sounds corny, naptime
and bedtime is so much more a pleasure now. She visually sees that
her time is gone and is so much more cooperative about stopping
whatever before bed-time activity we are doing and getting into bed.
It is also great that the timer is not a clock in that we may not
always start our bedtime routine at exactly the same time each
night. It's close but not exact. Because it is a timer, we can
adjust the amount of "red time" to about the same amount even if we
are ten minutes later getting out of the bath. I also give her some
auditory cues at 15 minutes, 10 minutes, 5 minutes, and 1 minute.
Again, thank you for your wonderful product. I have told several of
my friends and plan to mention it to any clients who are having
difficulties with their children at bedtime (I'm a psychologist)." -

"The Time Timer really helped me keep track of time at my AP tests."
- High School Student
"I like the Time Timer. I am 11 years old and I have PDD. I like it
because I know how much longer 'til my friend will be here. We
bought two of the Time Timer. One for home and one for school. It
helps me stay calmed down." - 11 Year-Old Boy

"Since using the Time Timer, my meetings have never been more
efficient or effective. People actually want to attend because I
dont waste their time." - Corporate Department Head

"We spoke on the phone last week about Bittersweet Farms ordering
additional Time Timers for use at our facility for adults with
autism. We have had several timers in use for 4+ years and they
continue to be wonderful tools and supports for our individuals. I
am especially happy to hear of the 3 inch model since we are a farm
community and our participants spend a lot of time in different
outdoor occupations. The pocket-sized timer will travel and be used
all over our 88 acres!" - Janice Cline, M.S., CCC-SLP
"I love your visual timer. It has been especially useful in working
with children with ADD and traumatic brain injuries." - OTR
"What an awesome company you have. Believe me, as a person whose
husband works for a small company, I know that word of mouth is the
best advertisement...and I have a large mouth! I will be passing
along info about your great product to all." - Therapist
