Blankets by Amy

Weighted blankets provide many benefits for children and adults. The proprioceptive input provided by the weight of the blanket, calms the nervous system. Increased focus and organization, increased body awareness and decreased sensory seeking behaviors are other benefits of using a product providing proprioceptive input.
Weighted blankets have benefited both children and adults, many with a range of diagnoses including: ADD, ADHD, PDD, PDD-NOS, CP, Alzheimer’s, Attachment Disorders, Anxiety Disorders, Bipolar Disorder, Restless Leg Syndrome, Sensory Integration Disorder, Tourettes, and Sleep Disturbances.
Weighted blankets have also benefited many individuals looking for a natural solution to increase focus and attention while experiencing the calming effects the weight of the blanket provides.
Today weighted blankets are used in many settings. Schools, clinics and long term care facilities are using weighted blankets to assist their clients.
These blankets can be used as a self-regulation tool, and are versatile enough to be used anywhere. Many families use the small blankets in the car, at worship services, restaurants, waiting rooms, at the table during homework or dinnertime, while watching a movie at home or in the theater. The small blankets are versatile enough to be used as lap pads or shoulder wraps.
The medium and large size blankets are more often used at home, in clinics, in the classroom by special Ed teachers or therapists, during medical appointments or hospitalizations, and long car rides.

Description & Pricing
Each blanket is made of fleece material with a satin binding along the edges.
The exterior is triple reinforced for durability. All blankets are filled with natural stone in 2 or 3 inch pockets for even weight distribution. The blankets are machine washable on gentle cycle. I recommend lay flat to dry. The weight of the heavier blankets may be too much for most household dryers.

- “As a pediatric occupational therapist, I use weighted blankets in my work on a daily basis. I had no idea how much I would enjoy one of my own until I tried one of Amy’s hand-crafted blankets. The quality is outstanding, the design is adorable, and the effect of the blanket is calming, soothing and comforting. I would recommend Blankets by Amy to my clients, colleagues, family and friends.”
”Blankets by Amy offers high quality weighted blankets for an amazingly affordable price. As a special educator we use a variety of Amy’s products in the classroom, including lap pads, medium and large sized blankets, and bean bags. I even purchased one for myself to use at home!”
