Who will benefit from weighted toys

Children and adults with sensory processing problems whether it is associated with autism spectrum disorder, ADHD, ADD, intellectual disability or another disability. They all benefit from deep pressure on the body, either through pressure on the shoulders or while sitting on your lap, or pressure on the whole body in the supine or prone position such as when sleeping. Individuals who exhibit behaviors such as repeatedly jumping, bumping into walls, pushing and banging their heads can all be signs of seeking deep pressure. In extreme cases, children jump from dressers or other high places to experience the pressure through their feet. Some people who sleep restlessly or experience insomnia will also try to get deep pressure and achieve relaxation by piling blankets on themselves. They will also benefit from weighting.

Which weight is suitable?

Which weight to choose? Weighting products may not weigh more than 5-10% of the child's body weight for a child. Also use a lower weight if you want to apply weighting around the neck and more weight when weighting is applied as a vest.
