Close toilet lid
The lid is so small it barely counts, yet it sits at the end of a chain where the body is already heading out. The card below makes that invisible step visible so it is not forgotten each time.

About this visual support
The toilet lid is one of those details adults rarely think about and children almost never catch in time. The flush is done, hands are washed, the brain has already moved on to the next room. That is exactly why it disappears. It is not carelessness, it is the brain marking the visit as finished before the lid is down.
Visual support gives the step a place in the chain. When the card for closing the lid sits between flush and hand wash, it is not an extra thing to remember, it is a visible link in a sequence the body already knows. Your child follows it without a reminder from you.
One concrete tip: place the card at child eye level, ideally on the lid itself or on a magnet on the way out. That is where the gaze lands in that moment, not at the mirror. When the whole toilet visit repeats every day, you can build it as a short routine in Routined and always keep the lid card as the very last one.
