What are training pictograms used for?
Children with autism often struggle with even simple daily tasks, simply because they can be too confusing with too many steps or details. Since autistic people may need to do things one step at a time and need predictability, they often get stuck at the prospect of having to navigate an unfamiliar task themselves.
However, most people can be helped by creating pictograms that illustrate how to get through step-by-step. Since the child doesn’t know the meaning of the pictograms, they need to be guided through them at the beginning and helped to connect image and action.
The Take a bath for girls training pictograms series is a specially developed aid that visually guides the girl through the bathing process. You are reminded to position yourself correctly, turn on the water, wash with soap and shampoo and rinse them properly, and put on a bathrobe at the end.
The Take a shower training pictograms are beautifully illustrated. They help girls with autism focus by showing only the shower area of the bath and using a girl as a character. Since the pictograms come with Danish texts, girls benefit from the extra explanation, as well as the opportunity to strengthen their language by connecting images and words.
The Take a bath for girls with autism training pictogram series is available in 2 versions: 29 cm and 42 cm, printed directly on thick laminated paper with a Velcro loop or hook for hanging.
The training pictograms, printed on laminated thick paper, are a very durable solution when used correctly.
The Take a bath pictograms consist of 8 images, which are also available as stand-alone pictograms.
