Beach day, sorted before you even leave the house!
Hat β goggles β water bottle β towel β sunglasses β sandals... no scrambling, no meltdowns, just a clear visual plan for what's next.
This is the Today's Schedule page from the Original Flipbook! There are 11 fully laminated and assembled pages (including pages like a Schedule, Schedule Choices, First/Then/Next, To-Do List, Fun Activities, Communication, Break Board, Regulation board and more!) and everything can be customizable for your kid's actual routine π

After a big pool day, the last thing anyone wants is a fight about next steps. This 6-step visual keeps it moving from drying off to snack time.
Visual routines like this reduce the back-and-forth of 'what do I do now?' by breaking the task into small, predictable steps kids can follow independently with no reminders needed.
Want a schedule like this built for your own after-pool (or after-anything) routine? Send me a message and let's figure out what would work for your kiddo π

Beach days are exciting, but exciting can also be a lot. This 'What Helps' page pulls it back to what actually feels good: sand toys, floaties, a quick swim. Sometimes the calm-down plan is just... remembering what you love about it!

This customized flipbook lives at the intersection of AAC and visual supports by taking core vocabulary your kid already knows from their device and reimagining it in a new format, a new way to work through steps and routines.
Standard or fully customized, it's familiar language, just executed differently π

Getting ready for summer adventures!
One of my favourite things about visual supports is how they bridge the gap between the picture and real life because matching a symbol to the real thing builds understanding, predictability, and confidence for the moments that matter most and can make them exciting, too!
More summer-ready visuals coming soon!

A custom daily schedule, built for a classroom.
This binder was made specifically for a classroom setting so that every card, tab, and routine reflects that student's actual day: calendar time, letter of the week, breaks, snack, lunch, meditation, makerspace, and more.
That's the difference with a custom system: it's not generic clip art dropped into a template. It's built around the real routines, real language, and real visuals a specific classroom already uses, so it fits seamlessly into the day instead of adding one more thing to figure out.
The tabs (First/Then/Next, School Choices, Communication Board, Daily Schedule, Schedule Choices, To Do List) make it easy for teachers and EAs to flip straight to what they need in the moment.
If your classroom could use a visual system built around your specific routines, send me a message! I'd love to design one with you π
