How often do you have to deal with reminding your kids that brushing for 10 seconds isn’t long enough to get rid of all the germs in their mouth, or that washing their hands for 5 seconds doesn’t help? Well, this Wash and Brush timer from TrendyKid can help you to do the job. Just set this timer up in the bathroom next to the sink and teach your kids about how it works. Hit the hand or tooth icon to select the timing mode and the light on the device will flash green, telling you to go or continue brushing. As you approach the end of the countdown (20 seconds for hand washing, 2 minutes for brushing teeth), it flashes faster and turns red when time’s up. Now your kids know exactly how long they have to brush their teeth or wash their hands for. The Wash and Brush timer runs on 3 x AAA batteries, costs about $8 and is available from the TrendyKid website.
