Product Information
Full details
The Tickit ColourBright Sand Timer is a versatile 15-minute timekeeping tool perfect for teachers, parents, and office professionals looking to manage time visually during games, classroom exercises, or focused work blocks. Its primary benefit is the combination of a robust, shatterproof exterior with vibrant, smooth-flowing sand that provides calming visual stimulation; however, users should note that as an analog device, it lacks an audible alarm or digital precision, making it best for tasks where a soft visual cue is preferred over a loud interruption.

To care for your timer, clean the exterior plastic shell with a soft, slightly damp cloth if it collects dust. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or submerging the timer in water.
