Why use a weighted lap pad?

Is your child a wiggle worm?  Does your child have difficulty staying put in a chair?  Does it seem as if the chair has springs on the seat because your child always jumps right off?  Innate hyperactivity and attention difficulties keep children with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) out of their chairs.  However, sensory integration dysfunction keeps autistic children out of their chairs.  These children are unable to adequately sense the chair against their bodies.  Therefore, they do not feel properly grounded.  Instead, they feel extremely insecure.  The use of a weighted lap pad may help your child feel the deep pressure of the chair.  Some children enjoy the lap pad on their chest or back when going to sleep.

Our lap pads are custom made for your child's pleasure.  Your custom lap pad will feature your child's favorite print on one side, and a solid blue on the other side.  We suggest the solid blue side for more than normal active days as blue tends to be a calming color and non-stimulating.  Please contact me if you would like a print other than what is shown. 

Our lap pads are constructed with multiple layers of fabric to ensure durability.  The quilted design of the lap pad assures even weight distribution to provide maximum therapeutic benefits.  We have chosen to use Poly-Pellets to weight the pad, they will not break down, rot, or smell; and are completely machine washable. 

2lb Lap Pad measures 12" x 18"

3lb Lap Pad measures 16" x 22"

As with any medical device, please consult your health care professional prior to use.
