Say goodbye to emotional deregulation and negotiations with our brilliant timetable designed to ease transitions and promote smooth sailing throughout the day!
Children often struggle with switching between activities because they haven't been informed about what's happening next. Our timetable provides a clear roadmap of the day's events, allowing your child to understand the bigger picture and prepare for upcoming activities.
Not only does the timetable serve as a visual aid for your child, but it also aids communication and discussion about the day's schedule. By referring to the timetable throughout the day, you can engage your child in conversations about what's happening and why transitions are necessary. Because there is a visual cue, your child can manage their emotions better because they don’t have to listen to a verbal instruction (much harder for young children to do).
The key to smooth transitions is in making your child familiar with what is happening today and referring to a visual for each activity regularly. By running through the day at breakfast time, children can get a feel for the day and be prepared for transitions because they know what’s coming next. Children find this hugely reassuring.
You get a back board which you can laminate or stick to some card, and 20 activity cards and 4 blank cards to customise. You can stick these on with blue tack or sticky velcro. With print friendly versions with less ink consumption, and spaces for you to stick photos or drawings of relatives and friends you might visit, the timetable has everything you need to be adaptable, versatile and informative to your child.
You can end stressful negotiations and welcome peaceful transitions with our trusty timetable by your side - print out a version half sized and stick it in your handbag or in the car so you can remind your child - It's the key to avoiding meltdowns and maintaining harmony in your daily routine!
