This Team Supporter weighted blanket is designed to fit on top of a Single bed, with no overhang. This gives the best calming effect to people with sensory sensitivities.
Fabric:
We make our Team Supporter weighted blankets with high quality printed licensed cotton of AFL team logos. The back is your choice of coloured cotton, sensory minky or smooth minky.
For the back, choose:
Cotton if you want a breathable, natural fabric. We recommend cotton for “hot sleepers”;
Sensory minky if you like to stroke textures to self-soothe; or
Smooth minky for a luxurious and snuggly blanket.
Available team prints:
Carlton Blues, Collingwood Magpies, Essendon Bombers, Fremantle Dockers, Gold Coast Suns, Hawthorn Hawks, Melbourne Demons, North Melbourne Kangaroos, Port Adelaide Power, St Kilda’s Saints, Sydney Swans, West Coast Eagles, Western Sydney Giants.
(If you are a Geelong Cats, Richmond Tigers, Western Bulldogs or Brisbane Lions supporter, please e-mail kirsty@calmingmoments.com.au to discuss alternatives as our supplier has run out of printed cotton but does have some fleece alternatives.)
How we make it:
We make this Team Supporter Single Bed Weighted Blanket in Greenfields, Western Australia.
Each weighted blanket’s calming effect comes from its weight. This comes from filling each blanket with the correct weight of micro glass beads.
The glass beads are the size of mustard seeds with smooth edges.
Each blanket has evenly spaced, individually sewn pockets. We fill each one with an equal weight of micro glass beads. This means that the blanket’s weight is evenly distributed across your whole body.
We fill each blanket with two layers of cotton wadding. This keeps the glass beads evenly spread through each pocket.
Care instructions:
You can machine-wash this Team Supporter Single Bed Weighted Blanket on cold, gentle cycle.

Your Blanket's Weight
Occupational Therapist’s recommend that a Single Bed weighted blanket should be around 10% of your weight.
We recommend selecting the next weight up if you are “inbetween” weights or want some room for growth for a child.
Please use the table below to help you choose the best weight for your blanket.
Weighted lap pads help calm anxiety and improve focus and concentration. They do this through applying a gentle, consistent pressure known as Deep Pressure Touch.
This Deep Pressure Touch (or proprioceptive input) works on your central nervous system.
Firstly, it switches off the “fight or flight” mode in the sympathetic part of the central nervous system.
Then it switches on the parasympathetic nervous system. This physically slows your breathing and heart rate and makes your muscles relax.
The end result is that you feel calmer and less stressed. So then you can focus on the task at hand.
