How to use the web timer
A toothbrushing timer turns an open-ended activity into a clear, manageable interval. It is useful when several tasks share one kitchen, room, study table, or training space, because everyone can see when the current block ends.
Use a two-minute interval and move systematically across outer, inner, and chewing surfaces. An adult can supervise younger children without rushing them.
Make the interval visible to children and fit it around school hours, household routines, and the early evening meal. On days of heavy rain, class suspension, or a slow ride home, shorten the block rather than turning the timer into a punishment.
When the alarm sounds, check the actual result before extending the time.
