Weighted blankets have numerous benefits to both children and adults. Here are just a handful of benefits:

- Weighted therapy helps increase the levels of Serotonin and Melatonin in the body.
- They can assist with Insomnia, falling asleep at night and staying asleep at night.
- A weighted blanket is a highly effective calming tool to help people relax and sleep.
- They can be beneficial to children with ADD or ADHD spectrum disorder, as they can help kids calm down during school to focus on their work, or after school if they are wound up or to help them relax at night to fall asleep easier.

Size: When you decide on a size, please consider that the blanket should primarily cover the person's body and not cover too much of the bed. Have the person lay on their back and take a measuring tape side to side and up and down to figure out which size will work best. These are ONLY suggested sizing, everyone is different.

Size Options (I can customize these dimensions too, just ask):

1) small child: 30"x40" : approx 32-38" child : approx 3-4 years old

2) medium child: 35"x45" : approx 38"-42" child : approx 4-5 years old

3) large child: 40"x50" : approx 42"-47" child : approx 5-8 years old

4) pre-teen/small adult: 40"x60"

5) teen/small adult: 40"x70"

6) adult (average): 45"x70"

7) adult (tall): 45"x80"

8) adult (large): 50"x80"


Weight: A commonly suggested weight formula for the weight of the blanket is 10% of user's body weight, plus one pound. It would be beneficial to get more info from a doctor or OT. For example: a 40 pound child, would use a 5 pound blanket. Or a 150 pounds adult, would use a 16 pound blanket.

Important things to consider: These are important questions to ask yourself when ordering.

1) Has an OT or doctor given you a recommended size or weight of blanket?

2) How many inches tall is your child?

3) How many pounds does your child currently weigh?

4) Is your child strong/average/below average in strength?

5) Compared to BMI charts and percentiles, is your child above/average/below for height and weight?


Pellets and blanket construction: Safe, non- toxic and hypo-allergenic poly pellets for weight.
The blanket is divided into equal size pockets that will contain equal amounts of pellets so that the weight of the blanket is evenly distributed. Each pocket has double stitching around them for extra durability. Binding is sewn on the edge for extra durability and stability to the blanket.

Washing and care: Blankets are machine washable in regular washing machines for blankets ~16 pounds and under. Wash on a gentle cycle and fluff dry on no heat or low heat. It is best to hang to dry (hang over a chair or railing). For blankets over 16 pounds, you can still wash at home, however it is recommended that you use a commercial washing machine (laundry mat) and hang to dry because they may be hard on your machine.

Fabric options: I ONLY use minky in my shop, which is going to make the most cuddly, luxurious and long lasting blanket.

WARNING: Weighted blankets should NOT be used on infants or children/adults that do not have the strength or ability to remove the blanket from off their body. Please do not buy one and use it between different age/size/weight of children. Please avoid having your blanket near pets that may chew or claw it, as this could tear open the pockets and expose the pellets.
These are not recommended for adults/children with circulatory disorders.


At check out, please let me know the fabric color on the back. If you do not write that in the text box, I will pair it with a coordinating dimple minky.
