2 Minute Sand Timer
A two-minute sand timer makes the everyday two-minute jobs visible — brushing teeth, a short calm-down, a quick turn — with a flowing hourglass a child can watch from start to finish instead of a number they can't read.
Why a 2-minute sand timer helps
- Toothbrushing — the dentist-recommended two minutes, shown as falling sand
- Calm-down moments — a short, predictable reset for rising feelings
- Turn-taking — a fair, silent two-minute limit for sharing
- Quick tasks — tidying a space or packing a bag before the sand runs out
- Breathing beats — a soothing focal point for a short calming breath
About the 2 Minute Sand Timer
Two minutes of falling sand turns a quick task into something a child can see through to the end — long enough to matter, short enough to hold their attention the whole way down.
