Timers are a great concrete, visual way of helping little ones to begin understanding the concept of time during the early levels of development regarding this concept.

I agree with Jen. Toddlers are capable of learning to transition when they hear a timer.

Sorry I didn’t see these comments until now.

Smart children they figured out that they could move the time!

You could really start quite early, especially if you are using a timer that chimes when time is up. Even toddlers will understand that the chime means the time is over. It will give them an aural cue as well as a visual one.
