Cool Graphics for Cool Kids!
Our founder and occupational therapist Aviva couldn’t find a weighted compression vest for kids, so she designed her own. This vest was our first Fun and Function product and it’s still one of our top sellers. It’s like a reassuring hug, perfect for helping to calm down, focus or cope with sensory overload. The steady proprioceptive input and compression around the trunk are especially soothing for those with sensory challenges. With stretchy neoprene for a snug, comfy fit and awesome graphics, kids even ask to wear it.
- Provides proprioceptive feedback to help focus and self-regulate
- Hug-like compression encourages calm and feeling of security
- Supports kids and adults with ADHD, sensory integration disorder or autism
- Made by Fun and Function
- Ages 2-10
Getting Started
Includes 2 lbs. of weight: four 1/4 lb. weights and two 1/2 lb. weights. Additional weights sold separately (see accessories). Weights are safely positioned in pockets inside the vest and can be added or removed. Learn about the calming benefits of weights and compression.

Weighted compression vestI bought this for my five year old daughter and she enjoys wearing it. The vest is well made.

I had been searching for a quality weighted vest (at the right price) for almost 6 months, when I found this vest. I could not be more thrilled! The weight is adjustable, and not bulky. The pocket for the weight allow you to easily add or remove weight. My son has days when he will not let us pull clothes over his head, and the velcro shoulder straps allow us to work around his needs. The vest folds and travels easily. I tuck it into my hobo style purse when we are on the go. I have recommended this vest to moms in waiting rooms through out Arizona.Read MoreTracy Thompson05/13/2014Love the Dolphin Vest!I love the dolphin vest.

The velcro allows it to be adjustable and comfortable. It's great that the weights are spaced out within the body of the vest to allow for even pressure. We have seen such great improvement in areas that are challenging for her.Read MoreShari Tiilikainen02/21/2012Weighted Compression Vest with Motorcyle GraphicI ordered this vest a few weeks ago for my son who has Autism.

The pink butterflies are great for little girls.Read MoreTMom12/22/2011Weighted Compression Vest with Peace GraphicOverall, I love this vest! It is well made, seems to be quality material, AND it's relatively stylish. The velcro is placed such that it doesn't catch my daughter's hair. This has been a problem with previous vests, so that was an important feature for us as she has really long hair. The only down side to the vest we've encountered so far is that, even though we sized it carefully, the vest is significantly too big for my daughter in both length and circumference. Since it's a hassle to deal with returns/exchanges, and she will grow into it, we're just sewing more velcro on so we can make it fit for now.Read MoreKCrossman12/08/2011 -
