It’s also a great visual timer for children’s quiet time.

So the ‘method’ specifically mandates 25mins and 5 mins. And nearly everyone has a perfect timer/alarm device in their pocket in the form of their smartphone.

This thing strikes me as just more single-use crapgadgetary.

Time timers and other visial timers are great for those with time blindness. They have the added benefit of not ticking. That sound is anxiety inducing for some individuals.

But yes, the cell phone does the same thing, more or less.
