Put on jewelry
A necklace or a pair of earrings can be the thing a child most wants to choose in the morning. The pictures below give jewelry its own place in the routine, so the choice happens at the right time and not in the hallway as you leave.

About this visual support
Jewelry is often the part of getting dressed where a child gets to decide the most, and that is why it can also take the longest. Should it be the heart necklace or the one with the star, the earrings from grandma or none at all? The choice is fun, but if it happens when shoes are already on and the clock is ticking, it easily turns into stress. On top of that come the tiny clasps, which need fingertip control and patience, and the fact that jewelry is not always allowed at school.
The visual supports show a woman fastening a gold necklace around her neck, a girl wearing a heart necklace, earrings and a bracelet, and two hands holding a necklace with a blue pendant. Place the picture last in the morning dressing schedule, after the top but before the hallway, so jewelry is chosen calmly. A practical tip is to keep a small bowl or box where the jewelry always lives, and to choose the day's piece the evening before. Add a picture for taking jewelry off before PE, swimming and bedtime too, so the necklace does not get caught or go missing.
In Routined jewelry can be added as its own step in the morning and evening routines, and the app can be tried for 14 days at no cost.
