My Schedule Book

My Schedule Book - an interactive communication book designed by Amanda Mc Guinness with high contrasting imagery together with a page by page white background with clear boundaries denoted by either a purple -blue or orange boundary.

My Schedule Book was inspired by Amanda's young son Conor who is autistic and non-speaking. Amanda designed the My Schedule Book to support her young son when out and about. Conor is autistic and relies on visual supports such as a First & Then and a Visual Schedule to help him feel secure and to make sense of his world.

When out and about, Amanda brings along the "My Schedule Book" so Conor is supported wherever he goes.

It is followed by two pages to represent the "My Schedule" section of the book, and is followed by two pages noted as "My picture symbols" and is denoted by an orange border.
