{"product_id":"time-timer-plus-20-minute-visual-countdown-timer","title":"Time Timer PLUS 20 Minute Visual Countdown Timer","description":"\u003ch2\u003eTwenty minutes, shown as a shrinking red disk\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTime Timer PLUS with a 20 minute dial. The red disk disappears as the time runs out, so a child can see how much is left without being able to read a clock. $98.00.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe whole Time Timer idea is that time becomes a \u003cem\u003equantity\u003c\/em\u003e you can see rather than a number you have to interpret. Set the disk, walk away, and the red area shrinks. A four-year-old understands it. So does an adult in a meeting.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy 20 minutes rather than 60?\u003c\/strong\u003e Because on a 60 minute dial, twenty minutes is a third of the face and the movement is slow enough to be almost invisible. On a 20 minute dial the same period fills the whole face and visibly moves. For silent reading, a homework block, instrument practice or a single agenda item, the shorter dial does the job the longer one cannot.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat the supplier does not publish for this model:\u003c\/strong\u003e dimensions, battery type, and whether the volume dial fitted to the 60 minute PLUS is fitted here too. The 60 minute PLUS measures 14 x 18cm and takes one AA battery. We would expect the same, but we are not going to state it as fact. Ask us before you order if the size or the battery matters to you and we will confirm with the supplier.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Educational Vantage","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53793135690091,"sku":"EVTT1020","price":98.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0963\/2795\/8891\/files\/tt1020_time-timer-plus-20-min_v1_6.webp?v=1788360808","url":"https:\/\/megaofficesupplies.com.au\/products\/time-timer-plus-20-minute-visual-countdown-timer","provider":"Mega Office Supplies","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
