Put on outerwear
The jacket has to go on while the clock ticks and someone is already in their shoes. The zipper jams, the sleeve turns the wrong way. The steps below lift the time pressure and let small fingers work at their own pace.

About this visual support
Getting dressed almost always collides with a deadline. Right when it is time to leave, trousers, jacket and zipper all need finishing, and the fingers are not always on board. A button that will not go in or a sleeve turned inside out is enough to make the whole departure fall apart.
Splitting outerwear into pictures makes it clear what comes first and what is genuinely left. The child sees that the jacket is already on and only the zipper remains, instead of facing one solid mountain of clothing. That lowers stress both for the one dressing and the one waiting, because the finish line stays visible.
One concrete tip: make the zipper or the buttons their own final step with their own picture, so the trickiest fine motor work gets full attention instead of competing with everything else. To keep the same order on your phone, you can build it in Routined and try the app free for fourteen days.
