A simple two-part visual that shows what comes first and what comes next — a calm way to get through tasks your child resists.
A full-day picture schedule that makes the day predictable and reduces the “what’s next?” questions and battles.
Picture cards for the morning rush — getting up, dressed, fed, and out the door, one picture at a time.
A calm sequence of pictures that moves the evening toward bed — bath, pajamas, book, lights out — without a battle at each step.
A “today is different” visual that helps your child see and accept a change in the plan — with simple words to go with it.
A visual that shows waiting has an end — with a timer, a first-then cue, and a plan for what to do while waiting.
A short picture sequence for one everyday task — washing hands, packing a bag, cleaning up — so your child can do it more on their own.
A by-age starting list of household tasks that build real skills, with tips for teaching them one step at a time.
A teaching method that starts with the last step — the one your child can succeed at — and builds the skill from there.
Included with Toolkit Plus — coming soon

How the tools work
Tools are most useful when they fit your child and your family. That’s how the toolkit is designed.
Every free resource opens right here on the page — no account, no download needed. Print or copy anything that helps, and adapt it to your child.
Some tools may eventually be personalized — a social story about your child’s dentist visit, a schedule built around your family’s mornings.
Every tool is grounded in practical, everyday experience — supportive, straightforward, and never a diagnosis.
