Price is what the vendor listed when last checked. Confirm it with the vendor before buying.

Professional guidance helps The boxes are simple to unpack, but the benefit comes from choosing the right objects or symbols for each student and teaching what they mean. A professional who knows the student's vision, communication and learning needs can make that work much better, though a family could try it alone.

What setup looks like

  • Out of the box
    Unpack the boxes and look them over before you plan how to use them.
  • With a guide
    1. Pick the objects or symbols that will stand for each activity in the student's day. Choose ones the student can recognize by touch or sight.
    2. Practice the routine with the student over several days so the meaning of each box becomes familiar.
  • With professional help
    A teacher of students with visual impairments, an SLP, or an OT can help choose objects and symbols that fit the student's senses and abilities. They can also plan how to introduce the schedule, usually over one or two sessions.
