Children With Special Needs

Kids Organiser

Many paediatric occupational therapists and special education teachers have recommended Cultivating Kids Face Your Day kids organizer, particularly for children with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), Autism Spectrum disorders (ASD) and Aspergers Syndrome (AS).

All children need to be encouraged to be aware of what is expected of them each day and to become responsible for managing and organising their time. Professionals who work with children with various learning disabilities stress the importance of starting assistance at an early age to set up routines with clear directions and consistency.

Children need to get into a habit of being organised and need to be encouraged to become independent thinkers. Disorganisation and lack of time awareness are common characteristics of children with ADHD, ASD and AS. This can affect their learning and their ability to manage their behaviour.

Cultivating Kids' children's weekly planner has photos of children actually showing the daily and weekly tasks and events they need to be organised for. It helps children to identify days of the week, to refine their planning skills, to manage their time more efficiently and to give them a sense of control in their lives.

Cultivating Kids' laminated organiser with whiteboard marker is very easy to manage and all children enjoy the opportunity to take some responsibility and be proactive in their own time management.
