Will a weighted plush work for your child?
Every child is different, and not every child needs the same thing to feel calm. Answer 5 short questions about your child, and we’ll show you whether a weighted plush or weighted blanket is a better fit, and which weight to choose.
Why this difference matters
Weighted plush
A friend who can go everywhere, even on the sofa or in the car. Your child can choose an animal with its own name and personality.
Weighted blanket
Stays in bed and applies even pressure across the whole body. Often preferred by older children.
Both work on the same principle: gentle, even pressure that signals to the nervous system that it’s safe to relax.
Frequently asked questions
Is this quiz medical advice?
No. The quiz helps you choose a product based on your answers, but it isn’t medical advice. If your child has been experiencing anxiety, restlessness or sleep problems for a while, discuss it with your GP or child health clinic as well.
Can I switch between the plush and blanket later?
Yes. You have 30 nights to try it out and see if it works for you. If it’s not quite right, we’ll arrange free return shipping and you can still try the other product.
How many questions are there?
5 required questions, plus 1 optional question. It takes about 2 minutes.
Still unsure? You can always take your time comparing both products.
