Tape up a large poster board where your preschooler can see it every day.
Write out a schedule that covers the entire day, from the time the child wakes up until the moment they go to bed. A schedule helps an ADHD preschooler stay organized and focused.
Don't plan activities for longer than 30 minutes each. ADHD preschoolers have a short attention span, so long activities will not go over well.
Include mealtimes and nap times on the schedule.
Notify your child of changes to the schedule a few days in advance. This helps keep surprises to a minimum, which helps an ADHD kid from acting out.
Write changes to the schedule on a note card, and tape them over the poster board temporarily. This helps remind the preschooler of the change in schedule that day.
