Abstract:
The lapweight is a weighted pad to be placed across the lap of a seated child who has a sensory processing disorder. The application of deep pressure helps to meet a need for additional sensory stimulation, with the end result of calming and focusing the child. The lapweight is comprised of a machine-washable outer casing whose fabric provides texture for tactile stimulation; four hand-washable fabric inner pouches containing the weighted material, polypropylene pellets; or, as an alternative, four soft pliable plastic inner pouches containing water, with a valve to adjust the amount of water to meet individual weight needs or for ease of transport; and attachable/detachable straps for tying lapweight securely around a childs waist.
