Following Recipe Steps Using FTVS HD

8/19/2013

For an easy, functional activity that encourages both family time and independent living skills, try using our First Then Visual Schedule HD app for recipes. 

To do this, find a simple recipe that is concrete and easy to follow, with minimal steps. Take pictures of each step and create a template for the individual to follow along with. At the end, you can either allow the food item itself to be the end reward, or you can choose another small token to encourage participation. 

Picture
Create a schedule dedicated to the preparation and/or cooking of the recipe.
Picture
Make sure the title is concrete and the corresponding photo represents the activity.
Picture
Add as many items as you need to create steps that the individual can follow easily.
Picture
Give the final step a motivating image, sound, or other "reward." In this case, the cookie itself would be the reinforcer, coupled with a preferred character.
Picture
Once the schedule has the desired steps/appearance, enable timers and set them according to bake/cooling times, prep time, etc.
You can develop more complex recipe "schedules" as the individual learns to follow along with the steps and becomes more familiar with cooking tools. Happy eating!!!

I like the sound and look of this but I'm worried about how much set-up I'll have to do for each individual 'chore' / 'activity' sequence.
