Deluxe Collection

My son is Autistic (high-functioning with PDA traits) and ADHD. He thrives with a visual schedule, but everything we've tried before this has been a bust. This has been the best solution by far. It's working really well for us and I think will serve us for a long time. The magnets themselves are of good quality. They were a little tough to separate initially, but we just bent them back and forth at the seam until they came apart. Here's how I use the magnets: I use the magnets for homeschooling during the week and chores or life skills on the weekend. We use the front of the refrigerator and use the "To Do" column to create the schedule for the day. As each thing is completed, we move it to the"Done" column. I write appointments and times to the schedule (in dry erase marker). I house the unused magnets on a large dry erase board which I store next to the refrigerator. I sort the magnets by theme for easy selecting. I usually have a few required magnets and parameters for him, but I let him arrange them and give him options to choose from for the remainder. The best part is we can go as detailed as he needs for the day, he chooses. We do supplement with additional detailed visual schedules (printed and laminated) for processes that we need to dig into further. For example, getting dressed we have a schedule so he knows to take off dirty clothes, throw them in the hamper, select new clothes, etc. This can be done for process they are struggling with.

These magnets are great. There are a ton of different ones and cover a huge amount of activities. The colors are bright and the pictures are clear and easy to see. We used a small cookie sheet to stick them to and that seems to work really well. Our daughter loves having a schedule and follows it pretty well. Only issue so far is how to store and organize them because there are so many. We were originally tossing around the idea of making our own, but we are pretty lazy and wouldn't have come up with magnets that looked this nice. They are a little on the pricey side but well worth it.

I have a special needs child. It was recommended that we use a visual schedule to help her get through her days and decrease her anxiety. My husband bought one SchKIDules set which is great for the weekend schedule (which he manages). I was trying to do the weekday schedule with little pieces of paper with clipart. I was taping and retaping them to paper and it was just not working. I then went onto Amazon and found the 153 magnet set. This is AWESOME. I bought a big magnetic whiteboard which has the before school and evening routine on it - these stay pretty stable. I then bought a small magnetic whiteboard to use for the few hours between after school and dinner. I needed a couple of extra magnets for "medicine". I found the SchKIDules website and called. I reached the owner herself. She was most helpful and pleasant. I was able to order some individual magnets from the website. They arrived very quickly. I am thrilled with the product as well sa the company.

I would have liked for it to include more school day magnets. An expansion pack or something would be great. Maybe by age. Overall great.

I work with children with Autism and these have been so helpful for helping create schedules and assist with preparation for transitions. I like these dry erase magnetic feature since they can easily go on a large magnetic whiteboard on the wall or become portable on a small handheld magnetic whiteboard. There are a good selection of activity choices!

It really cuts down on having to repeat instructions every morning, afternoon and night. Great quality and size. It has school-based events as well as family-based and personal care events. I just wish it came with a few blank tiles and a few more repeats of things like “Clear Table” or “Go Outside”.

Best, most complete visual schedule available. The schedule includes unique cards no other company offers like: lining-up, deodorant & lotion, calender, language, English, spelling, writing, Reading & reading aloud, lights. My complaint is that the cards are sort of thin so I have to use my nail to raise the cards off of my board which has caused the corners to turn up and cause deterioration quicker. So my recommendation is to make the cards thicker and charge more.

Good quality. Updated graphics would be appreciated. My biggest issue is that I wish some of the magnets had at least 3 copies or more. Like wash hands, make table, clear table, eat meal, take meds, etc... There are also some missing magnets for steps like flush toilet, wipe body etc. I want to have daily routines without having to recreate them several times a day. So if the kit doesn't come with them in multiples, they should be available for purchase individually. Better yet, the ability to make your own kit!

Super easy to use, perfect for a whiteboard or the fridge! Love the size and colour! Thank you, a fantastic product and perfect for ease of daily use schedules!!!

Absolutely great for our autistic son who needs alot of pictures for everything. The pictures are big and lots of visuals I could ask for. They are great and very realistic not cheap looking. Come in a great cardboard case and compact.

Our daughter is on the spectrum with speech and language difficulties. These have significantly helped her communicate what she needed. I highly recommend them. I will say I wish there were more diverse, with more in there like feelings and stuff and I know you can buy them separately I just wish there were still some included as the whole set.

Put an end to toddler woes and melt downs with this product. If it was only so simple... Yet, these metal backed images can sure help reduce frustration and improve communication through images instead of verbal instructions. Works great with most children even if their communication abilities may be limited. A great investment making mornings a breeze.

The box and magnets are smaller then I thought they would be but they are perfect size for what I need them for. Good price for the value.
