How to use it

Before the day, fill in the plan and the "who will be there" page together. Tape in photos if you have them.
Read the story "Going to a family dinner" a few times that week, and let your child color it.
Pack the calm-down card. When you arrive, find the calm spot together first.

Why it helps

A day with new places, many people and lots of noise is easier when your child knows what comes next, who they will see and where they can go to rest. Pictures say it without long talks.
