MirchiColor's daily life skills guides break everyday routines — brushing, bathing, dressing, eating, going out — into simple picture steps your child can follow, on screen or printed at home.

Daily life skills (ADL) are everyday tasks like brushing, bathing, dressing and eating. Autistic children learn them best when each task is broken into small steps — a method called task analysis. Every sheet here is printable, picture-based, works in Hindi and English, and is made for Indian homes.

Questions parents ask

What is task analysis and why does it work for autistic children?

Task analysis means breaking a big skill into small, teachable steps. Your child masters one step at a time instead of the whole task at once, so it feels doable rather than overwhelming — and every step done is a real win worth celebrating.

How do I use a step sheet at home?

Print it and put it where the task happens — the bathroom mirror, a cupboard door. Do the steps together at first, then tick each step your child masters. Real place, real routine, real practice.

What is backward chaining?

In backward chaining you do all the steps and let your child do just the last one — then the last two, and so on. Because they always finish the task, your child always ends with success and a sense of pride.

Are these step sheets free?

Yes — every skill is free to try, in Hindi and English, and every sheet can be printed anytime. Nothing is locked.
