The counting down minutes strategy is very good, we always do it before bedtime. 15 minutes to bedtime - 10 minutes to bedtime - 5 minutes... and by then he's already putting his toys away. A friend of mine has color tokens for the same thing, she puts down a green one when there's plenty of time, then yellow when it's almost time to finish and a red one when time is out.
