Personal Schedule

£0.00

Who:

Autistic children, neurodivergent learners, and visual thinkers who struggle with transitions, “time blindness,” or the anxiety of not knowing what comes next. This is for the child who asks “What are we doing?” repeatedly and for the parent or caregiver who wants to foster independence in daily routines.

What:

This is a highly customizable Personal Schedule Template featuring a numbered 6-step sequence. It includes a dedicated “All Done” section to provide a clear sense of completion. The blank sections are designed to be filled with drawings, written words, or velcro icons, allowing the schedule to adapt as the child’s daily needs evolve.

Why:

Verbal instructions are temporary—they disappear as soon as they are spoken. A visual schedule is permanent. By breaking a day or a complex routine (like “Getting Ready for School”) into six numbered steps, you reduce the “cognitive load” on the child’s brain. They don’t have to remember a long list of tasks; they only need to look at the board. The “All Done” marker is a crucial psychological tool, providing the dopamine hit of success and signaling that it is finally time to transition to a preferred activity or rest.
