now/next boards

[shopgirl771]

anyone use now and next boards?

Ive got one off ebay but am yet to use it.
of course i will use it (were just about to move home so will be something i implement when were moved in) but i have concerns.

it just seems that if im spending all day finding activity cards for this board how am i ever going to get anything done??? especially when my LB has attention issues and tends to want to change activities every 2 minutes and dont u need like a bazillion cards for all the different activities???

any support welcomed.

We don't have the now/next board - but we have a day calendar which shows what's going to happen in the day. We use it primarily to help with transitions though. I use it for the main activities - preschool, lunch, outside, play, sandbox, sensory box, snack, etc. Smaller activities (like blocks, puzzles, etc) I don't do it - with things like that I just have "play" and we decide what to do together.
