## What is ADHD Focus Timer?

Struggling to help your child with ADHD stay on task, get things done, and feel confident doing it? You’re not alone. That’s why we built ADHD Focus Timer—an easy, calming visual timer designed specifically for children with ADHD and sensory needs.

Created by parents, this app helps kids build focus skills and daily independence using strategies proven to work for neurodiverse learners.

Why It Works
ADHD Focus Timer is more than just a countdown clock. It’s a gentle, supportive tool that helps children:

Understand how time passes

Stick with tasks from start to finish

Regulate emotions without sensory overload

Feel encouraged through friendly character check-ins

Build routines they can own (without constant reminders)

Features Designed for ADHD Brains:
Visual Countdown Timer: Makes time "visible" to help kids pace themselves

Low-Stimulation Background Videos: Calm, looped environments designed to reduce overwhelm

Character Check-In Prompts: Gentle nudges from fun, supportive avatars (like a sloth or astronaut!)

Soothing, Lyric-Free Music: Helps settle busy brains and increase focus

Customizable Time Blocks & Check-In Intervals to match your child’s needs

Choose “Timer Only” mode for older kids or minimalist use

Designed for Families:
Whether your child is brushing their teeth, doing homework, or just trying to stay on task for 10 minutes—this app meets them where they are.

Built for:

Young children with ADHD

Parents looking for calming routine tools

Homeschooling and therapy support

Kids with sensory sensitivity

Teachers and aides in neurodiverse classrooms

Real-Life Uses:
Getting dressed

Tidying up

Homework and reading

Transitions between tasks

Calming timeouts

Morning or bedtime routines

We designed ADHD Focus Timer for our own child—and now we’re sharing it in hopes it can help your family too.
