Move one card at a time from Start to Doing to Done. Best for getting started and seeing progress.

Good to know
- Every child is different
- These are practical starting points, not a program. Adapt the steps and the amount on the page together with your child, family, teacher or the professional who knows them.
- Why small steps?
- Getting started is often the hardest part. One clear first step, a checkbox to tick and the next step already visible make a routine easier to begin and easier to finish.
- How does the Start / Doing / Done board help?
- Only one card sits under START, so it is obvious what to do now. Moving it to DOING and then DONE makes progress visible without anyone keeping score.
- What about the reward tracker?
- It is optional. Some families like a weekly view of what got done; if it adds pressure, leave it out of the kit.
