🏞️ Welcome to Time Safari

Pick a real‑life mission, put steps in order, make a time guess, then run your plan with kind support—even when surprises pop up.

🧠 Friendly reminder
Time guesses are practice—not a test. If the plan changes, that’s normal. We can adjust together.

📜 How to Play

You’ll go on a “time safari” through a real‑life routine. The goal is to practice planning and handling surprises kindly.

Game steps
  1. Choose a mission (like Morning Ready).
  2. Build the plan by putting steps in order (drag or Move Up/Down).
  3. Pick an “easiest first” step if you want a momentum boost.
  4. Make a time guess (a guess helps us learn).
  5. Run the safari: check steps off and respond to 1–2 surprise events.
  6. Reflect and print a Tiny Plan Card.
🧭 Parent role (no‑shame support)
Try: “Surprises happen. You’re not in trouble.” • “Want help, or want a tiny next step?” • “We can reset and try again.”

🫶 Parent Tips

Your job: safety + support
  • Normalize surprises: “Of course that happened—life does that.”
  • Offer choices: “Help?” “Tiny next step?” “20‑second reset?”
  • Spot effort: “You came back after a pause—that’s a big skill.”
  • Keep shame out: Avoid “Why can’t you just…” and use “What would help?”
Helpful phrases (copy/paste vibe)
  • “We’re on the same team.”
  • “Your brain is learning. That’s the point.”
  • “Let’s make the next step smaller.”
  • “We can change the plan. Plans are allowed to change.”
  • “Want me to hold the checklist while you do the step?”
🧠 About ADHD traits
Many kids struggle with time estimation, starting, transitions, and handling interruptions. This game practices those skills gently and collaboratively.
When it’s hard
If the child melts down or refuses: pause the game. Name the feeling, offer a reset, and shorten the plan (3 steps is still a win).
