Hourglass Disciplinary Stools

The Timer Stool is a Self-Calculating Time-Out Kids Chair

Parents looking for a creative way to discipline their children should check out the Time Out Timer Stool that makes sending children off to a corner to sit on a kid's chair for some quite time a little bit more fun.

Designed to look like a traditional sand hourglass, the Time Out Timer Stool is made from a combination of a navy blue MDF material and wood frame. Inside the frame is an hourglass made of glass filled with traditional white sand. When the child begins their time-out, parents can send them to sit on the Time Out Timer and flip the stool so that the sand begins to fall. Timed for exactly five minutes, kids can sit silently and think about what they did wrong and know when their time out is up by the last grain of sand falling through the hourglass.
