Help little sister
Helping a little sister means slowing down and letting someone else's needs come first, even when your own patience runs thin. It is a social skill that does not show on the surface. The pictures below make the small steps of helping concrete and doable.

About this visual support
An older sibling moves at their own speed while a little sister is still finding her way. Helping her calls for something hard: reading what she needs right now, noticing when she wants to manage on her own, and waiting for hands that move slower than your own. That kind of attunement does not come by itself, it is practised.
With visual support, the invisible part of helping becomes visible. One picture can show that you ask before taking over, another that you wait while your sister tries herself. The older child gets concrete actions to lean on instead of a vague be nice to your sister.
One concrete tip: pick a single thing the older child will help with, such as handing over a shoe, and let one picture show exactly that. Narrow tasks are easier to succeed at than open-ended responsibility for a whole sibling, and one good moment builds appetite for the next. To gather several helping tasks in one place, you can create them in the Routined app.
