Every rule on this board came from a real kitchen, a real school run, and a real kid.
We spent three weeks building this with one family and their autistic son, refining it dinner by dinner until it matched how he actually reads his world. Dinner sits in the same spot on every day. Bedtime is always the last picture. An empty morning stays visibly empty, because a blank space is information too.
His grandparents appear as their real photo, because a generic icon means nothing to him. When Dad travels, a “No Daddy tonight” marker appears on the board before dinner, so the evening holds no surprises. When the pickup plan changes on Wednesday night, Thursday’s board simply shows a different face under the school icon.
Those three weeks of rules now set up in days for your family, with your photos, your icons, and your house rules.
“Every parent of an autistic kid would kill for this.” The dad we built it for, unprompted
Faces they know
Real photos of the people in your child’s life. Who picks up, who takes them to therapy, who is coming for dinner.
A color for each kid
Siblings each get a border color, so everyone can see at a glance whose swim lesson it is and whose playdate.
Your house rules, kept
Your dinner time, your bedtime, your screen time slots, your Friday ritual. The board follows your family’s rules, week after week.
