Give the gift of a soothing weighted teddy: a weighted plush or weighted soft toy whose gentle weight can help ease everyday stress and anxiety, reassuring children and providing unique comfort to adults. A gift that benefits everyone. A soft toy with no batteries or electronic components, for 100% comfort.
Weighted plush toys stand out from classic plush toys due to their special filling, designed to provide a sense of comfort and security. They are becoming increasingly popular with both children and adults.
The different types of weighted plush toys:
• 🧸 Animal plush: shaped like a bear, koala, panda, or other cute animals, perfect for giving love and cuddles.
• 🔥 Warming plush: a small pouch warms up in the microwave, for a soft toy that feels like a hot water bottle.
• Large plush: designed to be used as a comforting pillow.
• Small plush: easy to carry, perfect as a soothing companion for children on the go.
What is a weighted plush toy for?
Unlike a traditional plush toy, a weighted plush contains microbeads that add weight. This concept is similar to a weighted blanket, known for promoting relaxation through gentle pressure.
It is especially appreciated by:
• Children who seek a reassuring point of comfort at bedtime.
• Sensitive or stressed people, as the weight can help ease everyday stress and anxiety and brings a sense of grounding and security.
• Plush enthusiasts looking for a companion that is both decorative and functional.
Which shapes and colours to choose?
Weighted plush toys come in many styles to suit everyone’s taste:
• Soft colours like beige, grey, or white, perfect for creating a calming atmosphere. Like our weighted sloth plush.
• Warmer colours like the orange of the weighted red panda plush or the brown of the Highland cow, ideal for children and colourful rooms.
• Realistic animal shapes or imaginative designs, adding a playful touch.
A useful and comforting gift
Giving a weighted plush toy is giving much more than just a toy. It is an ideal gift for birthdays, Christmas, or any occasion when you want to offer comfort and warmth. ✨
It accompanies both children and adults in daily life, at home, for sleeping, or simply relaxing while watching a movie. Discover one of our models, such as the large weighted Highland cow plush.
Weighted teddy for adults or children?
For a child, a 30 cm weighted teddy of about 0.4 kg, like the sloth or the red panda, is easy to carry and to hold close at bedtime. For adults, a larger weighted stuffed animal, such as the 65 cm Highland cow of about 1.4 kg, can be hugged like a cushion on the sofa or in bed. In every case, choose a moderate weight for the person.
Our weighted plush toys in detail
Our weighted plush toys range from 26 cm for the lavender teddy to 30 cm for small models such as the husky dog, the sloth or the red panda, then 35, 45 or 53 cm for the Highland cow, up to 65 cm for the largest one. Beige dominates, followed by grey, orange, black, white and brown: soft, natural tones for a bedroom or a sofa.
The weights stated on our product pages go from about 0.4 kg for a 30 cm plush to around 0.7 kg for the lavender teddy and 1.4 kg for the large Highland cow. Two models also warm up: the weighted microwave teddy hides a removable lavender-scented pouch, and the weighted and warming Highland cow has a small heating pocket that goes in the microwave.
