A5 ADHD routine planner inserts with step charts and cut-out cards
Simple, repeatable steps for mornings, evenings and bedtime, so you stop deciding what comes next.
Overview
This A5 ADHD routine planner turns mornings, after school or work, evenings, bedtime and a weekly reset into clear step charts, across 20 undated inserts for A5 or Half Letter ring binders and discbound planners. Inside the download are an A5 PDF and a Half Letter PDF, plus print-and-cut versions that fit two pages on one A4 or Letter sheet. It arrives instantly and nothing is shipped.
Write your steps once, follow them all week, and let the page do the remembering.
How the A5 ADHD routine planner builds easier days
Every routine has a spread to itself. On the left sits a 14-row step chart with a column for times and tick boxes from Monday to Sunday. On the right you note what you tend to forget, a shorter version for rough days and what you noticed during the week.
The routine builder relies on habit stacking, linking each new step to something you already do, and leaves room for cues, rewards and a backup plan. Cut-out cards can live wherever a routine happens, and a 31-day tracker spread over two pages shows streaks without cramping the small page. Since nothing is dated, you fill in the week yourself and reprint any spread whenever you want.
Who these routine inserts are for
- Adults with ADHD who would like mornings and evenings to follow the same easy steps every day
- Anyone using an A5 6-ring binder, a Half Letter binder or a junior discbound planner who needs routine pages in that size
- Busy parents and students who lose minutes figuring out the next step
- Neurodivergent planners who enjoy visual checklists and cards placed right where a routine happens
Design and printing
- Elegant, minimal white pages with soft blush pink details that use very little ink
- Roomy margins everywhere, so nothing is trimmed when printing at home
- Portrait inserts measuring 148 x 210 mm (A5) and 5.5 x 8.5 in (Half Letter), plus print-and-cut sheets for A4 and US Letter
- Undated, ready for any week of any year
- Mirrored margins, with 14 mm for binding on the left of odd pages and the right of even pages and 8 mm on the outside edge
- Writing lines no closer than 6.5 mm and text from 8.5 pt, so small pages stay comfortable
- A dashed center line and cut ticks on the print-and-cut sheets mean one cut makes two pages
- Use them in a binder or on a clipboard, or get them spiral bound at a print shop

- Colors may look a little different once printed.
- For personal use only. Please do not share, resell or redistribute the files.
- Digital files cannot be returned, but if a file does not open or print correctly, email us and we will help right away.
- Since ring spacing varies by brand, no punch marks are printed. Punch the wide inner margin with an A5 6-hole punch, junior punch or disc punch of your own.
- Please treat these pages as a tool for organizing everyday routines. They cannot diagnose or treat ADHD or any other condition, they are not therapy or medical advice, and they never replace a doctor, therapist or other qualified professional.
