Visual Daily Schedule

A visual daily schedule helps create a sense of safety by providing a predictable pattern and displaying it in an easily accessible way. In this atmosphere of uncertainty, fostering safety through predictability is especially important.

Adults think in words; however, children think in pictures. Using pictures to show children what comes next provides the consistency their brains require in a visual form they can easily understand. This printable from Certified Instructor Elizabeth Montero-Cefalo makes the process easy!
