Unpack bag
Every item leaving the bag needs a verdict — wash, bin or keep — and five things become five choices in a row. The visual support below splits the decisions so they do not collapse into one.

About this visual support
Emptying a bag looks like a single motion but is really a chain of small judgments. Lunchbox to the sink, damp socks to the laundry, receipts to the bin, hat back on the shelf. Every item is a micro-question, and after a long day the quota for those is already spent.
This is where visual support earns its keep. When each sorting choice exists as its own card — wash, bin, shelf, fridge — the child no longer has to invent the categories. Matching the object in hand to the card in front of them is enough. The decision becomes visible and one-off instead of an invisible stream.
A tip tied to this exact task: put a small laundry pouch and a wastebasket next to the bag before you start. The cards can then point directly at containers already standing there, and nothing gets lost in the gap between bag and proper place. In the Routined app the same card series can be reused every afternoon, so the routine becomes as predictable as the bag itself.
