Understanding Your Child's Meltdowns Starts with Tracking Them
The Meltdown Tracker Extension for children with Autism & ADHD is a practical behaviour and trigger log designed to help parents understand why meltdowns happen, recognise patterns, and support emotional regulation with confidence. Created specifically for SEN families, this A6 meltdown tracker helps you move from feeling overwhelmed and reactive to calm, informed, and proactive.
With space to record 50 individual meltdowns, identify triggers, track behaviours, and reflect on patterns, this tool helps you better understand your neurodivergent child and support their emotional needs in a meaningful, structured way. You will also find guidance on the meltdown cycle, common triggers, and real-life regulation strategies.
Some Key Features:
🧩 Understand Why Meltdowns Happen
Learn about common internal and external triggers - including sensory overload, transitions, and emotional dysregulation - and how these may show up in children with autism, ADHD, or other additional needs.
🔄 Break Down the Meltdown Cycle
Support regulation at every stage, from early signs to recovery, with tools that help you predict, respond, and reduce the intensity of meltdowns.
🛠️ Strategies for Before, During & After
Practical, compassion-led ideas to reduce escalation, comfort your child, and encourage long-term self-regulation - created especially for neurodivergent families.
📝 Log 50 Meltdowns in Detail
Includes 50 full meltdown tracker pages (double-page spreads) to document triggers, behaviours, your responses, and outcomes - supporting behaviour analysis and intervention planning.
📊 Weekly Reflection & Pattern Tracking
Weekly summary pages help you reflect, identify trends, and adjust your approach based on real insights — like your own SEN behaviour log.
📖 A6, Wire-Bound & Ready for Real Life
Portable and practical, so you can track meltdowns in real time - at home, school, or on the go.
The Meltdown Tracker Extension isn’t just about recording what went wrong. It’s about understanding your child more deeply, supporting them more confidently, and transforming those overwhelming moments into learning opportunities that move your family forward.
Also works beautifully alongside the Don't Just Survive: Thrive journal for deeper behaviour and emotional tracking.

Q: Is this suitable for school or professionals?
A: Yes! Many SEN professionals, and educators use the tracker to document behaviours, identify triggers, and support intervention planning.
