A simple picture plan: first we do the task, then comes something fun. It helps a child see what is coming and move through practice with less stress.
Say: First we practice our words, then it is play time. Point to each picture.
Watch for: Keep the First task short and doable, so the Then comes soon.
Stop when: Honor the plan. When First is done, give the Then right away.
Make it easier: Pick a Then your child really wants, and keep First tiny.
Make it harder: Slowly grow the First task over days, not all at once.
A quick check so little hands don\'t change settings.
