Product Description
Time Out Pad Super Nanny Naughty Step Time-Out Pad. The Time Out Pad helps parents make the most of the time out technique. To help children learn when their behavior is not acceptable, many parents use the 'time-out' technique, sitting the child quietly for a few minutes to calm down. Time-outs are a great way for the parents to stay calm too! FEATURES: - Simple to use pressure pad with built-in timer - Visual countdown and audio function - Suitable for children from 2 years and up HOW IT WORKS: Simply set the built-in timer to the desired time-out duration (usually one minute per year of the child's age) and sit the child on the pressure sensitive pad. If the child gets up before the end of the programmed time, an alarm sounds to alert the parent or caregiver, and the countdown will pause until the child sits back down. Once the full time-out countdown has elapsed, the finish tune is played to let everyone know that the session has ended. The child should then apologize and be rewarded with a big hug! WHAT IS A TIME-OUT? The idea behind time-outs is to remove the child from the scene of unacceptable behavior for a few minutes, giving both the child and parent time to calm down. Parents used to send children to their bedrooms, but these days the childcare experts all seem to agree that the time-out zone should be a boring part of the house, like the bottom step of the stairs. This allows the parent to keep an eye and an ear on the child during the time-out period.

 Great for the busy mom! November 11, 2009

When I first saw this item honestly I laughed however a week later I ended up purchasing it. As a mother of four very young children I have a tendency of putting children in time out but getting distracted by life. As a result two things happen: One my toddler will sneak out and I don't realize it till much later or Two they end up in time way too long. This pad solved both problems, it alerts me if my toddler tries to escape and it sings a fun song when time out is over so that I can talk with my children.
One piece of advice thought. Your child may find this fun at first, mine did, therefore I made sure to explain what it was for and did not allow them to play with it. The novelty of it when it first arrived soon dissipated and they now do not want to be on the time out pad.

This time out pad is perfect for a toddler who has no concept of time. This pad provides visual and auditory signals. It is also really great for ADHD kiddos.
Love it! May 31, 2009

Simple to use. Small enough to be portable. Works better then expected. My two year old kind of likes it but, he still has very effective time-outs. With 3 high spirited boys this has helped bring more order and consistency on my part. I would recommend this to any worn out parent of toddlers.
I absolutely love this product! June 2, 2009

I love this mat. It makes time outs productive and easy in my house. Before time outs were guesstimates. I intended for my child to sit for 3 minutes but by the time they sneak out a couple of times they might have been there for 4 or 5 minutes. With this there is no guessing and my kids stay in time out! They stay for the correct amount of time and you can see them watch the lights and get excited they finished their time out! Its also small enough to take with you. I love it. I thought it was a little on the high side but would highly recommend it.
Thank you.
Very effective.... April 28, 2010

I have a very high-strung 4 year old. For some reason, this time-out pad has made a world of differnece with his behavior! I don't know why really, but he has definitely started taking his time-outs much more seriously, since I have begun using this.
