The amusement park is longed for, but the high excitement and the queues require keeping anticipation manageable. Pictures of the day give a shape to all the fun and all the waiting. See the support below.

About this visual support

A day at the amusement park is the highlight for many children, but that very anticipation can also be hard to carry. The excitement builds for days, and when the day finally comes, long queues, loud sounds and a stream of impressions await. For a child who is easily wound up, the joy can tip into overload before you have even ridden anything.

Visual support gives the day a shape that keeps anticipation manageable. When the child sees a plan, travel there, queue a bit, ride an attraction, eat, rest, it becomes clear that not everything happens at once and that breaks are part of it. The pictures also help in queues, because then it shows that waiting is a step on the way and not something that goes on forever.

A tip: decide on a couple of things you will definitely do and show them with pictures, so the day has anchors even if everything else is uncertain. Knowing that the fun is planned in is calming. In the Routined app you can build a simple plan for the day, with room for both attractions and rest.
