Simultaneously, lighter drops of oil rise through the colorful water and spin a wheel in the upper chamber. Since the water is denser than the oil, it is forced through a funnel and down on to the paddles of the little wheel. A fun lesson in the density of liquids, this timer goes for about two minutes until you turn it over to start it again. Kids are fascinated by the properties of oil mixed with water and this makes an amusing gift that they can put on their desk and watch as the oil and water repel each other and spin the small wheels! | | | Features: | |
• Double chambered airtight timer containing small moving wheels
• Filled with clear oil and bright neon colored water which repel each other due to their different densities
• Excellent as a desk top toy, Christmas gift or as a novelty prize

 Fun toyJan 21, 2012
By K. Schuster
"Kai S"
This was one of my sons favorite Christmas presents. He is 3 and he like this much more than some of the bigger gift he got. Keep it simple! Thats what kids really love. It will work nice for a teeth brushing timer when he gets a little older. The oil drops for about 2 minutes and 13 seconds.

A bit smallDec 29, 2011

I bought this for a Christmas present. It was a bit smaller than I had hoped. I received it in great condition and in a timely manner.

Great for autistic child!Feb 19, 2012
By Deborah M. Courtright
I bought this item for my 4yr old son with autism. The spinning wheels and water action are both entertaining and calming for him. Because of this, the toy is a great distraction device! The price is very reasonable and I like that there are several colors to choose from. My only problem was when some of the colored liquid began to trickle from a seam. An easy fix was painting a thin layer of super glue along all edges.

 Stuck wheel...Mar 08, 2012
By TwinsMa
When I received this toy for my kids, one of the wheels wouldn't turn until it had a lot of the colored liquid in it (the other wheel turned just fine), as time passed, the slow wheel became stuck. One of my kids got angry that it wouldn't work and tossed it across the room. It landed on our hardwood floor and busted immediately. Just be sure that it is working properly as soon as you receive it.

Love itJan 25, 2012
By Darkness
Those are the ones I used to have when i was a little child.
Now i found them again and bought them for my children.And they are rough with them.
The colors are great, even though i find it to be sad that you cant choose your colors,because i ordered two..and they were both green.
However, they are durable, can be used for diff. learning or fun games. We use them also for brushing teeth...or doing other timing games. My kids love it..and so do I.
Def. would buy this again...as a gift or something. Its different/unique and fun.
