Why a weighted blanket for children?
Weighted blankets stimulate the production of serotonin and melatonin, which improves sleep quality and reduces stress. You notice the difference during the night and the following day.
- Falling asleep faster and deeper REM sleep
- Less stress and anxiety for a relaxed child
- More energy and a more cheerful mood
How heavy can a children's weighted blanket be?
A rule of thumb is 10-15% of body weight. We make two sizes:
For a body weight of 15 - 25 kg, from around 3 years old.
For a body weight of 25 - 40 kg, for the older child.
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 is important that the blanket is not too heavy for your little one. That is why we only recommend weighted blankets for children from 3 years old (approximately 15 kg). From that age, a child is usually strong enough to remove the blanket themselves, and that is essential.
At what age can my child use a weighted blanket?
This varies from child to child and depends on individual needs and development. In general, children from around 3 years old can safely use our lightest 2.4 kg weighted blanket. Not sure? Consult a paediatrician to determine whether your child is ready for it.
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 better sleep. The gentle pressure has a calming 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 as an aid to help them calm down. The even, gentle pressure works like a long-lasting hug and can help with processing sensory stimuli, making it easier for your child to transition to sleep. The same applies here: choose the weight based on body weight, use the blanket under supervision, and observe the minimum age of 3 years (approximately 15 kg).
Who is a weighted blanket intended for?
Our blankets help reduce anxiety and stress, with sleep problems and restless nights, and with sensory processing issues such as autism and ADHD.
