"This app has been a total lifesaver for our morning routine. My 4-year-old used to struggle with transitions, but seeing the picture slowly reveal itself makes 'time' concrete for him. It’s turned our daily power struggles into a fun game, and the gentle music is so much better than a jarring alarm."

"As a parent of a neurodivergent child, finding tools that actually work is tough. Visual Timer for Kids is perfect for managing 'time blindness.' My daughter stays focused on her tasks because she can see exactly how much progress she's making. The ability to add our own photos keeps her engaged and motivated every single day."
