• This friendly buddy weighs 1.36kg and is ideal for calming overactive nervous systems, easing stress during homework or helping children with sensory needs relax. The long arms and legs of the weighted animal can be straddled around the child's chest or on their back, whilst being secured with hook and loop pads, so the animal stays in place. This and the gentle weight provides proprioceptive input, which lowers stress hormones and releases calming neurotransmitters.

• Our weighted friend can encourage emotional regulation, as it can serve as an emotional anchor for children, teaching them to self-soothe when upset or overwhelmed, they can also be used in grief and emotional recovery. The soft fur can provide tactile comfort that mimics human touch, helping children process difficult emotions safely.
