1 Minute Candlestick Timer

A one-minute candle timer softens the shortest wait. The flame sinks slowly as the seconds pass — a calm, glowing focal point for a child who needs a gentle, non-jarring way to see a minute end.

Why a 1-minute candle timer soothes

About the 1 Minute Candlestick Timer

One minute of a slowly sinking flame is a gentle way to mark time — calming rather than urgent, ideal for a child who finds sudden alarms overwhelming.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does the 1 minute candlestick timer keep accurate time in the background?

Yes. It counts down against the real clock rather than ticking in the tab, so your 1 minute candlestick timer stays accurate even if you switch tabs or lock your screen — and the alarm still sounds at zero.

Can I change the duration, or switch away from the candlestick clockface?

This page opens preset to 1 minute on the Candlestick clockface, but you can set any duration and switch to a different clockface at any time using the controls below the timer.
