Clear dishes
Carrying glasses and plates is a motor task in the middle of a transition, and that is when things slip. The cards below show exactly how the trip from table to sink can go.

About this visual support
Between the meal and whatever comes next sits a short window where dishes need to travel without glasses clinking and plates tipping. Your child has just been still and is keen to move, while the hands have to manage fragile china. It is a fine motor balancing act, not an obvious task.
With visual support the whole journey gets a visible rhythm. One card for the plate, one for the cutlery, one for the glass, and one for where each item lands. Your child sees where the trip starts and ends, and avoids the temptation to carry everything at once, which is where most spills happen.
One concrete tip: decide in advance which spot on the counter is your child's, a tray, an edge or a marked section. Then the hands know where to go, and you do not need to steer with your voice. When the moment repeats every day, you can build the trip as a routine in Routined so the same order shows up each evening.
