6 Weeks of Summer? Here’s a Free SEN Visual Toolkit to Help
Free Visuals for Autistic and SEND Children
We understand how challenging the six-week summer holiday can be, for both autistic children and their families. The sudden change in routine can have a big impact, often affecting the whole household.
That’s why we’ve created a collection of free visual supports to help make summer a little easier. Visuals can help autistic children feel more prepared, happy and calm. They can also reduce anxiety around changes and provide a clearer understanding of what each day will bring.

Use these visuals to support your child in navigating the summer holidays with more confidence and ease. Whether you're staying home, going on day trips, or simply taking it one day at a time, these visuals are here to help. Print or use on an iPad to show your child what you'll be doing everyday.
Half terms and summer holidays for families like ours can look very different. And that’s okay. You don’t have to fill every day with outings or activities. Some days might feel long. Others may feel overwhelming. Please know: you’re not alone.

If you're worried or feeling the pressure this summer, we are sending love your way. Whatever your six-week break looks like, we hope it includes moments of peace, joy and rest for you too.
Take care of yourself. You matter, too.
