Time-Out iphone Application
I came across this iphone application during my weekly scan of new applications. This one maybe useful. Some children really respond to timers as if it’s the authority. Here’s how it works: you first have to do the initial set-up of your children’s names, up to four kids, and the time-out durations. Once that is set-up, you can start a time-out with a single click, and this can be done concurrently. You can shorten or add time as you see fit. Once the time-out is complete, an alarm sounds. For 99¢ it’s worth a try. Available at Apple itunes
