 Learning Resources - Time Tracker $38.95 After reading many of the negative reviews on the Learning Resource Time Tracker, I was hesitant to buy it thinking it would break right out of the box. Not true at all. In fact, while it is not the most quality product I've ever purchased for my 2 1/2 year old son, it is definitely not the worst. It is what it is...and it does what it does...and it does both very well. I first saw the product on Nanny 911 and I did think about it again until I started having difficulty keeping my son in his time out spot without having to sit right next to him to keep him there. I combined the Time Tracker with the Take Out Time Out mat (overpriced, but cute) and now I hardly have any problems with him finishing his time outs. He thinks time outs are interesting now and he cannot wait to finish and hear the "Time's Up!" announcement so he can play again, while knowing that we are happy with him for doing his duty. While the Time Tracker may not be the easiest thing to program, as others have said, once you do it once it's pretty easy. I have gotten so used to it that I can change the timer from time out, to nap time, to overnight sleep time in less than a minute. I set it to all green on "manual setting" and only make it turn yellow for the last 50 seconds, and red the last 10 seconds. Seriously, those reviewers who say it's difficult are simply techno-phobic or lazy. It's not hard and all...and my son loves knowing that there is a set time on all of his duties. Hearing "Time's Up!" is one of his favorite things now. Finally, again on quality, this is not a toy. Do not let your kids play with it or it will cease to work. Let them see it, touch it, but only once. Tell them it is not a toy and keep it out of reach. It will break if dropped, so my solution is to not drop it. Problem solved. Get this product. It's pretty darn cool...

Do It Tomorrow and Other Secrets of Time Management $15.95 I have read Mark Forster's previous titles like "Get Everything Done: And Still Have Time to Play (Help Yourself)" and I am impressed by his ideas about getting tasks done. But this book has no great idea. "Putting things till tomorrow" is habit called procrastination that I am trying to get rid. Mark's "task diary" function very much like my calendar. I still give 3 star because the book is easy to read and some worthy tips like never adding new items to my "Today" to do list so that I will feel confident and strive to complete the items in my list. The way Mark classified the projects into "Continuous" and "Organizational" type, give me a new idea on how to do my projects. |
