Support early time management skills with the Learning Resources Jumbo Sand Timer (5-Minute) — a calming, hands-on tool that turns the passing of time into a visual learning experience for children aged 3 and up. Designed with young learners in mind, this brightly coloured hourglass features bold coloured sand and soft, squared-off rubber end caps that make it safe, durable, and quiet to use. Ideal for classroom transitions, timed challenges, quiet reading sessions, or brushing teeth at home, this 5-minute sand timer helps children develop focus, patience, and an understanding of how long five minutes can feel. Its oversized design makes it easy to handle, while the colour-coded sand and clear labeling on the top make it simple to identify and differentiate from other timers. Need to pause the countdown? Just lay the timer on its side to stop the flow, allowing for flexible use across various settings. Whether used as a visual cue, behaviour management aid, or maths manipulative, this sand timer is a valuable tool for encouraging independence and structure in any learning environment. Note: This is a visual approximation tool and not intended for precision timing.
