    If you teach younger learners, this timer is like unwrapping gifts! As the clock counts down, a secret image is revealed! And, what great sound effects…there are about 10 pics to choose from and, you can even choose to have them revealed or not! Another feature is the capability to change the background… However, it does not have a timer countdown while the time is running. So, this would make it difficult to tell how much time is left during an activity. So, road buddies, keep searching if you need to view the time to pace the lesson. This app is not for you!

    I own a a home childcare and I thought this would be nice so I would know when to move on from an activity. I like that it does not have an actual time on it. After setting the time at the beginning there is no time on it until the time is up and shows a picture and gives a sound from that picture. I think this is a very cute timer for young children and you are not really worried about keeping to a set time and just knowing when to get ready to move on. I love the sound effects after the timer is over.
