Young children need to learn when their behaviour isn't acceptable. To do this, many parents use the 'time-out' technique, making the child sit quietly (usually on the bottom step of the stairs) for a few minutes to calm down and reflect on their actions.
In practice it's not always easy. How do you time a 'time out', when you've got so many things to do? And what if the child gets up during the time-out? How does a child know when a 'time out' is finished? The Time Out Pad™ can help with all these problems.
Simply set the built-in timer to the desired time-out duration (usually one minute per year of the child's age) and sit the child on the pressure sensitive pad.
If the child gets up before the end of the programmed time, an alarm sounds to alert the parent or carer, and the countdown will pause until the child sits back down.
Once the full time-out countdown has elapsed, the finish tune is played to let everyone know that the session has ended. The child should then apologise and be rewarded with a big hug!
