Post a daily schedule—everywhere. Post the schedule in the kitchen, family room, on the bathroom mirror, and in the bedrooms. Refer to the schedule frequently. Allow plenty of time for transitions if you need to disrupt the routine. ADD children thrive on predictability and routine. Disruptions to a schedule can throw these children into a tailspin.
(Hint: Make a master schedule and cut and paste it over and over into a Word document for duplicates.)
