Read full descriptionHide full description
Are you a parent who wants to communicate with your children about activity times? With the free mobile app, you can connect it to the Pamplume clock, which provides real-time tracking on its physical dial. It also includes a very handy timer! Together, time becomes visual, and you receive reminders of activity times and routines displayed on the dial. Designed to meet the needs of parents and children, the app does not encourage screen time. It provides audio reminders to help keep track of habits more effectively. For children with ADHD, it is a valuable aid and meets the need for structure. THE CONCEPT OF TIME Your child may not know how to tell time or perceive the moments of their day. You can help by showing their activities on the clock face (tooth brushing time, reading time, etc.), they just need to follow the hour hand. But everyone can forget to look at the clock! Thatβs why Pamplume offers a very handy audio notification on your mobile to prompt your child to start a new task or activity. BUILDING A ROUTINE A routine is acquired through repetition, so you can schedule a daily app notification and select the days of the week. You can also set up multiple routines and choose which one to activate: Morning routine, holiday routine, weekend routine, for example. Itβs a tool you can take anywhere! EDUCATIONAL When a child cannot read the time, it is hard to grasp the concept of time. We encourage learning to read the clock through the clock and app support. Gradually, your child learns to associate images with the moments marked by the audio reminder, then with the numbers on the dial. INDEPENDENCE The Pamplume app encourages your child toward independence. They learn with pleasure and can understand the time of their routines on their own. FEATURES LIST - Manually schedule different routines for different days - Scan your clock, activities displayed on the dial will appear in the app! - Choose whether to notify tasks - Timer function - Pamplume Clock available on Amazon GOALS - Learn the concept of time with pleasure - Improve parent-child communication - Make daily life easier - Encourage and motivate the child toward independence - Help acquire good habits - Visualizing time helps organize better
Puddly Potty Training Timer

Puddly is built around the one thing that actually matters in those first days: taking your toddler to the potty on time, without losing your mind. THE TIMER THAT WORKS Set an interval that suits you, five minutes or fifty, and Puddly nudges you once, gently, when it is time to try. The timer resets every time you log a visit, so it follows your day instead of fighting it. Nap? Car journey? Grandma's house? Pause it with one tap. Quiet hours keep the night silent. One reminder, never a stream of them. LOG IN THREE TAPS Went, sat but nothing, or an oops. That is the whole thing. Add "told me first" or "went by themselves" when those happy days come. A STICKER FOR EVERY EVENT, INCLUDING THE ACCIDENTS This is where Puddly is different. Most apps mark an accident as a red cross in a table. Puddly gives your child a sticker for it: a frog leaping happily into a puddle, an octopus with eight mops, a duck doing a belly flop. Accidents are part of learning, and nothing in this app will ever make your child feel bad about one. No red marks, no broken streaks, no graph that goes down. NINETY STICKERS TO COLLECT, AND TO COLOUR IN Puddy the frog and his friends Ducky, Okki and Noni. Every sticker opens as a colouring page: fill an area with a tap, or draw with a pen or a pencil. Ten fat swatches for small fingers, the whole colour wheel one tap further for a grown-up. Print any of them on real paper, blank or coloured in. THE 3 DAY METHOD, GUIDED If you are doing the popular three day approach, Puddly walks you through it: what to prepare, what each day looks like, and what is completely normal (day two is the hard one, for everyone). After that it keeps going with the milestones that actually matter: the first time they tell you BEFORE, the first dry day, the first trip out of the house. SHARE THE GOOD DAYS Every milestone makes a card you can send to your partner or the grandparents in one tap, straight from your phone. PRIVACY, PLAINLY No photos or video of your child. The app has no camera feature at all. No account, no sign-up, no cloud. Your child's name and their whole log stay on the device and are never sent anywhere. WHAT IT COSTS The timer, the log, the 3 day guide, the starter sticker set, colouring, printing and sharing are all free. Extra character packs are a one-time purchase, and there is a single unlock for everything. No subscription. No ads. Potty training is messy, tiring and shorter than it feels. Puddly keeps the timer honest, keeps the mood light, and gives your toddler something to be proud of. Puddly offers routine guidance for parents. It is not medical advice.
