Time children can see

Young children often cannot read a clock yet, but they can see a ring getting smaller. Use it for transitions, screen time, tidying up, turn-taking or quiet time. Full screen makes it easy to see from across the room.

For brushing teeth use the toothbrush timer, for reading the reading timer, and for lessons the classroom timer.

Frequently asked questions

Can I turn the sound off?

Yes. Tap the bell button to mute the alarm.

Will it work if my screen locks or I close the tab?

Only while the page is open. The countdown keeps time from your device clock in a background tab, but phones and laptops can pause or silence web pages when they sleep, lock or close the tab. For anything that really matters, also set your device's own alarm.
