- 60 minute visual timer by Yunbaoit
Why we love it: This is the visual timer that finally clicked with our crew. No loud ticking, no confusing numbers – just a big red disk that slowly disappears. Ideal for transitions, cleaning spurts, or “just 5 more minutes” battles. - Undated Daily Layout Planner by The Happy Planner
Why we love it: It’s the ADHD-friendly planner that lets you start on any day (even after a week of forgetting it exists). With space for to-dos, appointments, and brain dumps – it meets your executive function halfway. - Experience 2 Earplugs by Loop
Why we love it: These aren’t “I’m tuning out my kids” earplugs – they’re “I’m protecting my sanity” earplugs. They reduce overwhelming noise without silencing the world completely. Stylish, reusable, and a lifesaver on loud days. - Ticktime Pomodoro Productivity Timer by PIHEN
Why we love it: This tool is like a gentle tap on the shoulder from reality. You just flip it to the side that matches your task time – 5, 10, 25 minutes – and go. No app. No distractions. Just a simple way to see and feel time again.
