Buy Weighted Lap Bag 1.5kg online from Skillbuilders Australia
Weighted lap bags are a very practical way to provide children with calming deep pressure sensory input in the classroom environment. They can be used to help children maintain their concentration during mat time as well as at the desk for written work. These lap bags are filled with poly pellets and are made in cordoroy with segregated sections to ensure even weight distribution. Poly pellet lap bags can be washed in the washing machine. We also have the Animal Lap Bags for another weighted option.
Please let us know in the Order Comment Box during checkout to advise us of your colour choice - blue, purple or red. Otherwise a random colour will be selected - At the moment only blue lap bags are available.
Also available in 2.5kg and now XL 3kg. As a general guideline we tend to advise 1.5kg for approximately 3 to 6 years and 2.5kg for over 6 years, however it really depends on the sensory processing needs of the child. If your child is actively seeking deep pressure sensory input (as opposed to just being calmed by applying deep pressure input), then we recommend the heavier weight. The general guideline is 5-10% of the child's bodyweight.
