Perfect Timer

I am a preschool special education teacher. My students love absolutely love this timer! Every time I set a timer to help my students transition from a task, some of them will stop the activity to watch the timer and try to figure out what the picture will be.

The settings are amazing; the kids love to listen to the ticking sound, and I love that I can lock it and they canโ€™t accidentally get out of the timer!! Thank you for this timer!!!
