About the Tool
What is StepByStep?
A visual sequencing tool that helps children and adults practice everyday routines — breaking activities into clear, simple steps so users can learn and complete them in the correct order.
🧩
What is sequencing?
Sequencing is the ability to put steps in the right order — a foundational skill for independence in daily life.
🏥
What are ADLs?
ADLs (Activities of Daily Living) are basic self-care tasks like brushing teeth, washing hands, and getting dressed.
🍳
What are IADLs?
IADLs (Instrumental Activities of Daily Living) are more complex tasks like cooking, cleaning, and managing routines.
🎯
Why does it matter?
When clients can sequence a routine independently, they gain real-world confidence and reduce reliance on verbal prompting.
Who It’s For
Built for the people doing the real work.
