Sand Timer Set of 6

Bring Calm & Structure with Our Sand Timer Set (6 Pack)

Transform daily routines and foster independence with The OT Supplier’s versatile Sand Timer Set. This thoughtfully curated pack of six colourful visual timers (30 sec, 1 min, 2 min, 3 min, 5 min, 10 min) is an essential tool for parents and occupational therapists in Australia. Designed to bring clarity and predictability to abstract time concepts, these timers are incredibly beneficial for children navigating sensory processing differences, Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), or ADHD.

From an Occupational Therapy perspective, sand timers are powerful visual timers that help children understand the passage of time without relying on abstract clock-reading skills. This concrete visualisation reduces anxiety during transitions, encourages sustained attention for tasks, and builds crucial executive functioning skills. Whether it’s for teeth brushing, homework, quiet time, or screen time, these timers offer a clear, non-verbal cue that promotes self-regulation and reduces resistance.

Key Benefits for Your Child
