This is a fun and creative halloween activity I used as a part of speech therapy for my middle school and high school students*.

I developed this meal planner for my own toddler as a model for meal choices and visual representation to use for supporting receptive language. There are 7 pages- the first page is meant to be the board where choices are made (from a field of 4), then there are pages for each meal, snack, and dessert, and finally an extra blank page for additional food choices. The images are PCS colored line drawings (Tobii Dynavox Boardmaker), and the words are size 20 font. Recommended instructions: This
