A picture grocery list shows each item as a photo, the way it looks on the shelf. That helps when reading is slow, when the store is busy and loud, or when a written word like yogurt does not say which tub to look for.
Each row has a tick box, so the list doubles as a checklist in the store: find it, put it in the cart, tick it. Nothing gets bought twice and nothing gets forgotten on the way home.
The list starts with a week's staples. Open it in the maker to take off what you do not need and add your own items from the photo gallery, or upload a photo of the exact brand you buy.
Eight self-care routines as full-page visual task cards for teens, with a Did I Finish self-check strip, cut-apart sequencing cards, comprehension checks, a weekly self-monitoring tracker, wallet-size mini cards, and three difficulty levels.
When to Use This Template
Use it for a weekly shop, for community outings with a support worker, for teaching shopping skills, or as the list a household fills in on the fridge during the week.
How to Customize This Template
- Take a photo of the exact brand you buy and upload it in the maker, so the picture matches the shelf.
- Put the items in the order of your store's aisles to save walking back and forth.
- Keep a copy on the fridge and tick what runs out during the week, then take that list to the store.
- Add a price column on the back for budgeting practice.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What is a picture grocery list?
- A shopping list where each item is shown as a photo with its name, often with a box to tick. It helps anyone who finds a photo faster to read than a word, including autistic adults and people with intellectual disability.
- Can I add my own items?
- Yes. Open the list in the maker, pick items from the photo gallery or upload your own photo, and print the new list.
- How do I use it in the store?
- Take the printed list or a photo of it on your phone. Find each item, put it in the cart and tick its box. Anything not ticked at the end is still to find.
- Is there a version for practicing money skills?
- The Grocery Store Math pack uses the same item photos with prices, budgets and receipts for practice.
