Beacon

Activity Planner

AI-generated activities for your child, tailored to their age, goal, sensory profile, and where you are.

When to use this

Use Activity Planner when you have 30 minutes and zero ideas. Pick a goal (regulate, focus, connect), the age band, the setting (home, car, waiting room, outside), the sensory considerations, and Beacon writes 3-5 concrete activities you can start in under 2 minutes. Saved to your archive so you can re-use the good ones.

How it works

  1. Pick goal, age, setting

    Three required chips. Goal = what the activity should do (calm, energize, build a specific skill). Age = approximate band. Setting = where you'll do it.

  2. Add sensory considerations

    Optional multi-select. Pick the senses to favor or avoid for this activity (e.g., heavy proprioceptive input, avoid loud noise). Pairs with the Sensory profile if you have one saved.

  3. Generate

    AI returns 3-5 activities with concrete instructions, materials, and adaptations. ~15-30 seconds. Counts against your monthly quota; the chip at the top shows remaining uses.

  4. Save + re-use

    Every generated set is saved to your archive. Re-open the good ones from the workshop dashboard. No re-generate needed when the same situation comes back.

A real example

Maya needs to regulate 6yo Avery after school. Indoors, 20 min, vestibular-heavy.

What Beacon auto-knows

  • Your inputs for every generation in the archive.
  • Which activities you tagged as worked-well.
  • Quota state for the month (used vs remaining).

What Discuss with Beacon adds

  • Discuss attaches the most recent result. Useful for 'adapt this for 4yo instead of 6yo' or 'what if the trampoline isn't available'.
  • Beacon can blend with Sensory + Schedule data: 'Make this fit between 15:00 OT and 16:00 snack on a Tuesday.'

Try these with Beacon

  • โ€œAdapt this activity for the car ride home.โ€

    Reads the result + setting=car constraint. Rewrites the 3 activities for a buckled-in 6yo: deep breath count, name 3 red things, finger drumming.

  • โ€œAvery hated activity #2. Replace it.โ€

    Removes activity 2, generates a substitute matching the same goal + sensory profile, returns the updated set. Does not burn a new quota use.

  • โ€œWhat activities work for both Avery and her 3yo sister?โ€

    Cross-runs the inputs at the lower age band, returns activities that work for both ages. Flags any that need 1:1 supervision.

  • โ€œWrite a calm-down kit shopping list based on these activities.โ€

    Extracts materials across all generated activities, deduplicates, returns a 6-10 item shopping list with where to buy.
