“Within the daily, routine, predictable, happenings of
home life, there is no need for a visual schedule…
The trouble comes when there is a change. Any change…
…Schedules are communication.
If Children learn to use visual schedules, their internal
predictions of the events can be re-written by simply helping
them understand that today’s order of events is going to be
different. Reducing anxiety during change is the biggest
benefit of schedules. Communicating what is different will
benefit the entire family!”
