Custom Lap Pad

As promised, here are pictures of the lap pad that I was working on for one of my customers.  It turned out very nicely and man is it ever heavy!  This is going to make one little boy very happy... or at least I hope so!




Mom shared with me that her little man has a rough time sleeping through the night.  This reminds me SO much of another little man that I know and love who always made our bed his home.  The one on the right literally moved in and never left our bed.  Once I made the weighted blanket, he started spending more and more time in his own bed.  Thank Heavens!




Here is the link where you can order one of these fabulous lap pads. https://www.etsy.com/listing/200258458/customized-weighted-lap-pad?

They are wonderful for transport when the blankets are just too much. Going out to a restaurant and having them jump around and scream because of sensory overload isn't any fun for anyone. I have noticed that when we bring one of the weighted blankets/lap pads. Everyone is much happier. Noah is able to sit and concentrate on what he is supposed to be doing.... eating!

Lap pads are an essential tool to help them sit.  They get the added pressure which gives them comfort when their environment is causing them to "ping".  (That is what my husband and I call it because they are acting like the ball in a pinball machine.)  Try one today and see if it helps your special kiddo like it did ours.
