Eat supper
Late in the evening, the body is asked to do two opposite things at once: take in food and start winding down. The visual support below breaks the meal into calm, readable steps.

About this visual support
Supper lands in the middle of a shift. The body is hungry, yet inner signals are already nudging toward slowing down. Those two pulls happening at the same moment make it hard to know whether to sit still, eat fast, chat, or start yawning at the table.
A row of pictures gives the meal an outer rhythm that matches the inner one. Your child sees that the plate arrives, that they eat, that the glass is emptied, and that the table is then cleared — without anyone needing to keep nagging about pace. It becomes easier to stay in the meal instead of bolting away or worrying about what comes next.
One supper-specific tip: add a picture of a calm next step right after the meal, such as brushing teeth, reading a short book, or dimming the lamp. The body then knows winding down is already booked in, and doesn't have to start mid-bite. In the Routined app you can place the evening pictures in a sequence that follows from table to bed.
