Using Visual Supports for Sensory Regulation

Описание: Visual supports are one of the most powerful tools for kids with sensory needs, autism, ADHD, or anxiety. Whether it’s a simple whiteboard checklist, a visual timer, or an emotional regulation program, these tools help kids know what to expect, transition more smoothly, and build independence.

In this episode, we share practical ways to use visual schedules and supports in the home, classroom, and therapy settings. You’ll learn how visuals reduce meltdowns during transitions, why emotional regulation tools like the Zones of Regulation are so effective, and how to pair visuals with sensory strategies for even better results.
