Harkla Weighted Blanket

The general guideline for weighted blankets is to choose one that is approximately 10% of your child's body weight. This 5 lb blanket is best suited for children weighing around 50 lbs to ensure the pressure is effective but comfortable.

Yes, the blanket features a removable, duvet-style cover that can be taken off for machine washing. This makes it simple to keep the blanket clean, even with daily use.

The inner layer is made from 100% rayon from bamboo, which is naturally breathable and moisture-wicking to help regulate temperature. While the minky cover provides a soft, cozy texture, the bamboo base helps prevent overheating throughout the night.

The minky dotted fabric is designed to provide tactile sensory input. For many children, this texture offers a soothing, grounding sensation that can help them relax and settle down more easily.

While it is excellent for sleep, it is also a great tool for daytime use. It can be used during quiet time, while reading, or in stressful situations to provide deep touch pressure and help your child feel calm and secure.
