This item is well worth it's money! Even after reading the other reviews I decided to give the Time Tracker Tags a try and I'm so glad I did.

Yes, SOMETIMES you have to adjust the tags in the unit to get them to connect, but we have the same trouble with our Wii remote charger and it's no big deal that it takes 2 extra seconds out of your day.

We use our tags multiple times throughout the day:
* Each kid gets three 30 minute sessions on the Wii, Computer, or TV (their choice). I love that mom and dad are no longer the 'bad guy' for telling them their time is up!

* We use them for tracking reading time and love that we don't have to hear, "Mom, how much longer do I have to read?"

* We've used them for kids in 'think time' so they knew when they could come back and play.

* We've even sent one of our children out to play at a friends and told him to be back once the buzzer rang in time for dinner.

Over-all, I love this product. With 4 kids ranging from 18mos to 10 years old, these tags have been tossed around and are still in-tact. I especially love that they help cause less arguing and contention in our home. Everyone who comes to our house comments on what a great idea these are.

***One more thing, don't bother purchasing the seperate power supply. It already comes with one.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great function for a school nurse, September 24, 2009

I am a school nurse and bought this myself for my office. I have three cots for kids to rest when they don't feel well, and when I get busy with a lot of kids coming in and out of the office, sometimes kids are lying down longer than I intended and miss too much class time. I pull a timer when they go to rest and then tell them when it alarms to bring it back up. I then recheck them and send them on their way (either home with parents or back to class). I know this is not meant for this kind of use, but it really works well.

I bought this to help my kids stay on task, but we never got to use it long enough for us to find out. I purchased one and the display panel didn't display all the information and one of the tags didn't beep at all, so I was sent another which all seemed to work. This unit only lasted several weeks before one of the tags wouldn't stop beeping unless we took out the batteries and the display turned to gibberish.
