Our weighted blankets are beautifully hand crafted with pride right here in Melbourne. Weighted Blankets provide deep pressure all over the body and can be very calming. When used correctly they can be a powerful addition to anyone's sensory tool box.
These pink small blankets are approximately 1 m x 1 m. Small blankets are best suited to younger children. Blankets are filled with Poly Pellets and so are washable. Our blankets are carefully hand made in Melbourne, Australia.
Occupational Therapists recommend that blankets be no more than 5 - 10 % of a person's body weight, so please take this into careful consideration when thinking about selecting a blanket. If you're looking for a weighted blanket for a toddler, the small size is generally best suited. Alternatively, you might like to consider a weighted lap blanket.
If you need help with choosing the right resource for your individual needs, please do not hesitate to contact us. Our experienced therapy team are always happy to help.
Colours / patterns and sizing can also be custom made at your request (see our custom blanket item).
Weighted blankets have been found to help restless people sleep easier. With the guidance of an Occupational Therapist this resource can be great for people with Sensory Integration Dysfunction, ADHD, Autism and more.
The use of weighted objects to apply deep pressure is known to help the user stay focused, alert, calm and organised. It helps to calm an over-aroused sensory system.
** For NDIS participants, please note that weighted blankets are considered to be Assistive Technology, with a complexity level above 2.
