Description

TomTag is a visual support and communication tool that helps children and young people develop coping strategies to manage their day, using structure, organisation, and predictability.

This toolkit helps you to prepare for visits to doctors, dentists, medical appointments, and the hairdressers – common problem areas for sensory issues.

Everything’s ready to go with TomTag’s colourful, sturdy tags, click-in buttons, and symbol stickers. All you need to do is personalise it – just pick, stick, click, and off you go.

Key features

• use visual timelines to prepare for visits to doctors, dentists, medical appointments and the hairdressers
• explain potential sensory issues and triggers before the visit
• explaining what’s going to happen during visits before you go really helps to ease any  anxieties and gives ample time to ask and answer questions
• remove surprises and unpredictability from essential appointments by planning ahead with visual supports
• TomTag is portable and so easy to pop in a bag to take along to appointments for reassurance about what to expect whilst you’re there

Our customers say

“I didn’t use any visual supports before purchasing TomTag. They are great and have so many uses, I had to order more as I kept coming up with more uses.”
