Collect puzzles and games
When puzzle pieces and game tokens are mixed on the floor, the hard part is not the tidying, it is the sorting that has to come first. The visual support below breaks the gathering into smaller steps so your child can see where to start.

About this visual support
A half-finished puzzle, a board game flipped upside down, two card decks now mixed into one. For a child who already finds it hard to hold several things in mind at once, gathering becomes an executive task more than a tidy-up. Where does this piece belong? Which box is the right one? That is where pictures do most of the work.
With each step laid out as its own square, it becomes possible to start somewhere without having to see the whole job. Your child can begin by collecting the puzzle pieces into a pile, then matching them to the picture on the lid, then closing the box and standing it up. One concrete tip: lay the empty boxes out on the floor first, so the sorting goes into them instead of being a search afterward.
Once the sequence settles in calmer moments, you can build the same flow inside the Routined app, where the pictures combine with a soft timer and check-offs.
