How heavy can a weighted blanket for children be?
A rule of thumb is 10% of body weight. We make two sizes:
- 2.4 kg — for a body weight of 15 - 25 kg, from around age 3.
- 3.2 kg — for a body weight of 25 - 40 kg, for older children.

Frequently asked questions
Are weighted blankets safe for children?
Absolutely, as long as you choose the right size and weight and use the blanket under supervision. It’s important that the blanket isn’t too heavy for your little one. That’s why we only recommend weighted blankets for children aged 3 and up (around 15 kg). From that age, children are usually strong enough to remove the blanket themselves, which is essential.
At what age can my child use a weighted blanket?
This varies from child to child and depends on their individual needs and development. In general, children aged around 3 and up can safely use our lightest weighted blanket, which weighs 2.4 kg. Unsure? Consult a pediatrician to determine whether your child is ready.
Can a weighted blanket help with anxiety or stress?
Yes. Weighted blankets have a calming effect and help children feel safe and secure while sleeping. They can help reduce anxiety and promote a better night's sleep. The gentle pressure has a soothing effect on your child's nervous system.
Are weighted blankets suitable for autism or ADHD?
Many parents of children with autism or ADHD use a weighted blanket to help them calm down. The even, gentle pressure works like a long-lasting hug and can help with processing sensory input, making it easier for your child to transition to sleep. The same guidelines apply here: choose the weight based on body weight, use the blanket under supervision, and follow the minimum age of 3 years (around 15 kg). Would your child rather have something to hold during the day? Then check out our Weighted Cuddle Toy Collection.
Who is a weighted blanket for?
Our blankets help reduce anxiety and stress, with sleep problems and restless nights, and with sensory processing, such as in autism and ADHD.
