Weighted Bear

Cuddly Bear with Soothing Weight and Tactile Benefits

More friendly than a weighted blanket or lap pad, this super soft and cuddly bear makes a great companion for sensory-seeking kids. Lightly weighted, he encourages sensory input, heavy work and tactile exploration. Teddy is your calm-down friend for transitions, circle time, bedtime, therapy sessions or whenever your child needs to calm and focus. He provides a feeling of comfort and security in any situation! Use with adult supervision.

Getting Started

Weight provides proprioceptive input, which helps children with large motor control, motor planning and processing sensory information. Weight acts like a filter, helping the nervous system integrate information more efficiently.

Ideas for Use

• Place in lap for comforting deep pressure during transitions.
• Keep nearby during stressful situations to have a buddy to talk to.
• Rub hands across the bear’s soft body, helping to calm and regulate.
