Lifeskills 4 Kids

Using weight to provide proprioceptive feedback is effective for "grounding" children with autism, sensory integration disorders and many other neurological challenges.
The weighted lap animal is specifically made to provide input and stability, thus enabling a child to attend and focus. Improvements have been noted in reducing rocking behaviors, maintaining 90 degree hip flexion, decreasing leg wrapping around the chair and reducing the incidence of standing during fine motor activities.
These critters are best utilised for 20 minutes at one time. Size - 25 x 15cm; 2.5 kg.
Vinyl fabric for easy cleaning.
