Trust Badges

Many children find it hard to express their feelings.

Sometimes simply things like “I’m feeling angry” or “I’m feeling hot” may be hard for them to explain. This adds to a situation’s stress.

This Emotions weighted lap blanket for girls helps reduce anxiety and gives your child an easy way to explain explain how she is feeling.
 

The Emotions weighted lap blanket for girls comes printed with 10 emotions to express how they currently feel or if they need help.

This durable, washable minky fabric can sit on your child’s lap or on their desk when not needed. It can be folded or scrunched up without it damaging the print.

The cute design makes children want to use them or look at the faces to describe how they are feeling.

They are also fully washable.

These are lined for durability with triple stitching and filled with our super quiet micro glass beads. The printing is professionally dyed into the fabric to ensure that washing doesn’t erase it.

This is a unique Calming Moments product, with our own designed characters.

FAQs

Our Aussie team custom-makes each weighted lap so that it will calm and relax you. We make them for people with:

  • Severe anxiety that hurts their ability to experience joy;
  • Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD);
  • Neurodivergence, including Autism and ADHD;
  • Difficulties in concentrating or sitting still.
  • Dementia;
  • Sensory processing difficulties;
  • Big feelings of overwhelm that make it difficult to be calm and present; and
  • Depression.

To get the calming effect, just put the weighted lap pad on your lap. Then continue with whatever you were doing.

You can use it at work or school to help improve focus and productivity.

Use it in the car to feel calmer.

And it’s great for relaxing at home while reading, watching TV or doing a hobby.

The weight is supplied by micro glass beads.

These are incredibly fine and – unlike poly pellets – have no sharp edges that could disturb your focus.

They are also silent, unlike poly pellets that can make whooshing and rustling noises.

You can wash your weighted lap pad on cold, gentle cycle. Dry it flat or on the line.

Please do not tumble dry.
