Why We Love It
The Sloth Heavy Hugger is the ultimate soothing companion, offering comforting deep pressure whenever kids need it most. Snuggle it in your lap for calming, grounding input or snap the paws together to wear it like a backpack for sensory support on the go. A zippered pocket holds a removable weighted cushion, allowing you to customize the amount of input while leaving extra space for your favorite fidgets or chewies. Choose the Sloth Heavy Hugger on its own or opt for a bundle that includes accessories to support more sensory and fine motor needs. The Mini Me Dressing Vest helps build dressing skills through play, while the Calming Leaf and Tree Frog Chewies provide a safe, satisfying outlet for chewing and biting.
