This app is a great timer for kids' daily routine tasks such as taking a shower, using the toothbrush or their favourite reading time. Many kids don't understand how to read a clock yet or even a concept like "you have 10 minutes time left!" - this app will be a perfect fit. It teaches kids to self discipline in a funny and non teacher-like manner. Audio and visual alerts help to keep track of their schedule. What suits children will also suit the parents: any kind of schedule like class work, repetitive or ad-hoc sequences of tasks or even sport workouts can be simply scheduled. A special note to parents having a child with ADHD or Asperger: probably time management is often a struggle - especially for seemingly simple tasks like getting dressed or some housework. Such kids do not notice time passing like other kids do. We believe that our timer will be a great support for their daily planning and the ability to finish tasks. Happy timing!

With Kiddo, you can define the routines you adopt with your children. A child with a good routine gives him a sense of security and independence. During the routines, some of your child's basic needs are met. You can share the time left for each activity. No more meltdowns at the end of a play session or at the end of a bath. Routines reassure children that they know what will happen and for how long. It also helps develop the child's autonomy, the parent starts the routine/timer and the app rings at the end of the activity, the child knows he/she has to stop independently. For a good routine, be consistent, make sure to repeat it as often as possible and keep things simple. Be sure to involve the child in the process.
