30 free credits — no card needed
One word, one image — the picture-dictionary rule
Every card is a simple, direct picture of a single concept: if you cover the word, a child should still know exactly what the image means. No busy scenes, no clip-art clutter — the same design rule behind the symbol sets used in speech therapy and special education, drawn on demand for whatever your student needs.
Where teachers and therapists use them
Visual supports help autistic and neurodivergent students, EAL/D learners, early readers and any child who processes pictures faster than text. Make a whole matched set in one go instead of hunting through image libraries card by card.
- Visual timetables, daily schedules and first-then boards
- Step-by-step routine cards — toileting, hand washing, getting dressed, packing up
- Emotions check-ins, choice boards and calm-down strategies
- Classroom rules, communication boards and vocabulary for any topic
Print-ready in minutes
Cards come out as a clean, consistent set with editable labels, ready to download as a PDF or as single PNGs. Every set is saved to your library — re-download any time at no cost.
Common questions
What kinds of visual supports can I make?
Picture cards for visual schedules and timetables, first-then boards, step-by-step routine cards (toileting, hand washing, packing up), emotions check-ins, choice boards, classroom rules and vocabulary for any topic. Cards come as a matched set with editable labels and a print-ready PDF.
Are the pictures consistent with each other?
Yes. Every card in a set follows the same rule — one word, one direct image, same style — so a schedule or a board reads as one set. You can regenerate or relabel any single card.
Is this a symbol library?
No. Symbol libraries and board makers give you a fixed set of symbols to search through. HandsOnTop draws the exact cards you describe, on demand, so you can make a set for your student’s particular routine in minutes.
What does it cost?
Each card is 3 credits, so a six-card set is 18. Every account starts with 30 free credits, and re-downloading a saved set is free.
