Magnetic Visual Schedule (95 Cards) | NDIS Routine & Anxiety Support

Establish predictability, foster independence, and reduce daily anxiety with the Quokka Magnetic Visual Schedule. Classified as low cost assistive technology, this comprehensive 95-card system is specifically designed to support NDIS participants (aged 3+) living with Autism (ASD), ADHD, or cognitive delays who struggle with task sequencing and executive functioning.

For children with developmental challenges, verbal instructions can often be lost or misunderstood, leading to frustration and behavioural outbursts. This visual tool bridges the communication gap by converting abstract routines into concrete, illustrated steps. By physically interacting with the magnetic cards—ranging from self-care tasks to emotional regulation activities—participants can visualize their day, understand expectations, and experience the satisfaction of task completion, laying the groundwork for lifelong independence.

How This Device Supports NDIS Participants

• Building Executive Function: Supports the development of planning, sequencing, and working memory by breaking down complex daily routines into manageable, single-step visual cues.

• Reducing Transition Anxiety: Provides a clear visual roadmap of the day ("First this, Then that"), which significantly lowers stress associated with transitions and unexpected changes.

• Supporting Non-Verbal Communication: The large, high-contrast illustrations allow non-readers or non-verbal participants to communicate their needs and understand schedules without reliance on verbal processing.

• Promoting Independence: Encourages self-regulation by allowing the participant to check their own schedule and move tasks to "done," reducing reliance on constant verbal prompting from parents or carers.

Key Features & Benefits

• Extensive 95-Card Library: Includes 80 thematic cards (hygiene, chores, hobbies), 15 functional cards, and 6 customizable blanks, ensuring the chart can evolve with the participant's changing capacity building goals.

• Accessibility First Design: Features large, legible fonts and color-coded frames (e.g., blue for hygiene, green for play) to assist users with visual processing differences or reading delays.

• Durable & Sensory Safe: Each magnet is laminated for longevity against spills and handling, featuring rounded edges to prevent injury and tactile discomfort.

• Customizable Goals: The inclusion of dry-erase blank magnets allows OTs and parents to create specific, personalized tasks relevant to the child's unique NDIS plan (e.g., specific therapy exercises).

• Interactive Engagement: The magnetic format provides satisfying tactile feedback, turning the abstract concept of "responsibility" into an engaging, hands-on activity.
