Toolkit
Picture Schedule Maker
Many children feel calmer when they can see what's coming next. Pick the steps of your Sunday, put them in order, then print the board and the cards.
1. Choose a board
Show one thing to do first and one thing to look forward to next. This works well for a child who finds waiting hard.
2. Add a title
3. Pick the pictures
Tap or click a picture to add it to the board.
Make your own card
A photo of your real room or buddy works even better than a drawing. Photos stay on your device.
Your board
Cut-out card size
How to use it
- Print the board and the cut-out cards. Laminate them or cover them with clear contact paper.
- Put a small piece of Velcro on the back of each card and on the board.
- Show the board when your child arrives. As each step ends, let them pull that card off.
- Say "It's time for Bible time" instead of asking. A question invites a "no."
- Put something they enjoy last so they have something to look forward to.
