She loved it and on her own told us she could play the first section without looking. That was with the stop watch on my phone, but I may still buy a real kitchen timer for the novelty of catching her attention once again.Kathynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6468439890002165895.post-22229729392034694562013-01-31T17:54:03.465-06:002013-01-31T17:54:03.465-06:00I have both a stopwatch and the timer on my phone,...I have both a stopwatch and the timer on my phone, but the timer starts at one minute increments. What's missing with the phone stopwatch is that satisfying and rather annoying buzzer of the timer going off when the time is up. They know it's coming, but they don't know when!Paula E.

I think 15 minutes will go very very quickly, and I'm always astonished to find out how long it actually lasts and how much I can get done in that timeframe. 15 seconds? Pfft! Walk in the park!Paula E.

Perfect timing. There is a stop watch on most phones unless the novelty of the timer is needed. <br /><br />The E and A String Concerto and Open String Blues were a great help for my 4 year old student.

Repeat something 10 times might sound hard or boring for some students, but to see how many times I can repeat it in 15 seconds?
