The kitchen timer, such a small, but oh so handy gadget, the everyday kitchen timer really can help us moms with so many important tasks,  accomplishing more around the house, putting the kids in timeout, making a game of clean up time, cooking the perfect meal, baking cookies.  All of it, the kitchen timer can help you to do and do well.

Using a kitchen timer for the previously mentioned tasks can be well…. handy.  Just think, you will be able to get more done knowing you have 15 minutes to do it and that timer is going to buzz when the minutes are over. It has been a motivation for me, and for my son if I can get him to stop asking me “mom, when is the timer going to go off?”

There are different models available out there today including the old windup, and then theirs the new sleek digital timer, whatever floats your boat, you can use them both equally as well.

So, what do you use your handy dandy kitchen timer for?
