Breaks from school can be a time for great fun and activities with family. For some kids, losing the structure of school days can be challenging. Using schedules during school breaks keeps kids in the loop about what's coming next and provides structure for those who prefer structure to lots of downtime.
Similarly, this tool can help prepare children for activities they aren't used to, such as big family gatherings or outings. They can also help indicate changes in the schedule. 
  • ​For readers, a simple list of activities for the day can be useful.
  • For those who prefer pictures or icons, a schedule with visual icons can map out the day in a fun and appealing way. You can search for icons/pictures of activities on Google, take pictures of your own, or even draw icons. 
  • Visual schedules can be as simple or complex as you want them to be! 
Here are some examples of visual schedules:
  • The Inspired Treehouse
  • Printable Routine Cards from Natural Beach Living
  • Teaching Mama

Happy Holidays!
