Not only are the stickers, charts, and watches amazing, but the bonus guides and videos are also SO helpful! Our family just moved to a new home and town (right before school starts, of course), so I bought the When Everything Changes book and my kids felt seen and valued when connecting with the characters’ experiences, and then having the exact same planning chart made it feel like magic. Me and my 7 y/o son are diagnosed with ADHD and I suspect my 5 y/o daughter will also be diagnosed later (although hopefully not when she’s nearly 40 like I was), and we love checking the list item buttons and having the concrete objects and images to organize our tasks.
Heading off to buy more now!
We’ve started using this with our 3 y/o and it’s been so helpful to have a visual to start teaching these concepts.
We love the daily routine magnets and stickers for our 7 year old who has ADHD. He loves moving the magnets and they help him stay on track and follow his routine!! Thank you!
Does your ADHD brain HATE laundry and wonder why we haven't hit Star Trek level instant clean clothes yet? Me too! 😭
Here's a solution until we get there...
My ADHD brain really struggles to complete tasks from macro to finishing steps so (if) I get the clothes into the washer, *most* of the time I remember to put them in the dryer... and then I forget them until I go to do more laundry OR the bag of clean clothes sits on a chair or the couch for weeks/months.
A visual way to track laundry status:
1. Place two double checklist boards side by side and label the task columns wash, dry, fold, away (if you have the laundry magnets with pics you can use those).
2. Write the laundry load on a blank magnet (darks, lights, sheets etc).
3. As you go through the phases of laundry move the magnet across the columns until all the steps are done!
Why this works better for Neurodivergent brains than one single column:
One check for a dark load of laundry means I can't get the dopamine until I've actually done FOUR steps that might take hours or DAYS to finish. No immediate dopamine. 😭
With the progression tracker I get to move a magnet and the dopamine for the two easiest steps (wash/dry) which makes me more likely to want the other two for fold and put away.
And even if I don't get to the folding and aways steps until the next few days, the board keeps the remaining tasks visually present. So when the laundry bag on a chair becomes part of the landscape after 24 hours I'll have the magnet to remind me to finish the progression. 💜
Just started using the chores with the magnetic chore chart and magnets + stickers, and it has been amazing. I have really enjoyed the visuals and the easy way it can help keep track of tasks, so I can reduce the executive decision making. My only critique might be that the number of stickers/variety felt a bit overwhelming initially where there were some that felt a bit duplicative
Steel Magnetic Task Chart / To Do List | Chart Only
Nice tool to help my stubborn and sensitive (ie. Big feelings kid) three year old stay on track. He feels like he is accomplishing a task and has a mini rewards of sliding the button to “done”. Helps him stay focus on what’s next, which is especially useful when having to help the other three kids too. Has been helpful in getting us out the door in time for bus and daycare drop offs! The reusable stickers are easy to swap out tasks as needed. The backing is magnetic but we just used masking tape on the wall to display the to do board.
The stickers were so easy to use. The options that came in our pack were just what we needed. They stick well but can come off easily to change/update tasks. My girls love it!
My adhd kiddo has the hardest time cleaning their room, and this helps break it down so she can do it more independently. Such a great tool!
I love this steel task chart. It is easy to bring from room to room, and the magnets slide easily on them. The magnets on the back of the chart are very strong, and stick to my metal surface very well.
I'm a huge soccer fan and try to watch as many of the World Cup games as possible but sometimes if you look at the app for a match time, you see the score of a game you're recording to watch later! 🤦 I cut off the words and use the soccer ball on the left half of the magnet and write the time and countries playing in the right half. I used different colored magnets to show if it is a game I need to set a recording for, a game I "have to" watch or a game I "want to" watch... because sometimes you have to go to work or go to bed before 2am even though it is the World Cup. 😆 Love these stickers!!
OMG we were dying to know why you ordered so many soccer stickers! This is AWESOME, we are going to share this on social media. You are the best. Thank you for leaving the review! ⚽⚽⚽⚽⚽⚽⚽⚽⚽⚽⚽⚽⚽⚽⚽⚽⚽
Very pleased with this purchase! My neurospicy toddlers love it and have responded really well to the chore charts. I was skeptical about the "reusable" stickers, but they seem to be holding up really well so far.
Very happy for this purchase! It helps us organize when we need to do some things around the house but has also helped us in realize what to maintain and how often!
We realized that our verbal reminders were keeping 8 year-old from thinking for herself. We were all frustrated, so it’s been game-changing to simply say, “what’s next on your list?” These visual reminders have helped us work as a team during morning and bedtime transitions and that makes us all feel peaceful and ready for what’s next.
I’m a 40 year old woman who struggles with focus due to multiple factors. I Iove this system so far. I’ve been really productive and most importantly I’ve taken my meds regularly which is something I leave to the end and forget. Pricey but worth it so far.
Extremely helpful in creating routines for my 5 year old! Bought more!
Has helped my kids (and me!) have less yelling in the morning and at night. All I have to say is do the routine and they can take it from there.
My daughter loves this system and it has made our morning routine so smooth!
