Special Delivery 🦁🦒
10th May 2026
On Friday we had the lovely Audrey from Muir Toys call to the school to deliver our recently purchased Therapeutic Weighted Animals. 🦁
Her range of weighted stuffed animals are designed to enhance sensory experiences and promote well-being for children and adults. The stuffed toys are designed to help reduce stress, aid in sensory therapy, and provide a calming presence. Perfect for those tough moments. 🦒
Created especially for children and adults with sensory sensitivities, anxiety, ASD, ADHD, overstimulation and sleep issues. We are looking forward to introducing these to the pupils over coming weeks. 🌿
⭐ Top Benefits of Therapeutic Weighted Animals
🧠 1. Calming Deep Pressure
Weighted animals give gentle deep-pressure input, the same soothing sensation as a firm hug.
Helps children and adults feel grounded when emotions or sensory input feel overwhelming.
😴 2. Better Sleep + Bedtime Routine
The weight helps settle the body, slow breathing, and reduce restlessness.
Perfect for calming down before sleep or nap time.
🎧 3. Sensory Regulation
For children and adults who are sensitive to noise, lights, textures, or crowds, a weighted plush can act as a familiar comfort item that helps keep their nervous system steady.
📚 4. Improves Focus + Concentration
Great for homework, reading time, or classroom environments.
Having weight on the lap or chest can help fidgety bodies stay centred.
❤️ 5. Emotional Support & Comfort
Weighted animals feel like a reassuring companion especially helpful during transitions, separation anxiety, or busy outings.
🦒🦁 6. Builds a Sense of Safety
Children often form strong emotional bonds with their weighted plush, giving them a ‘safe anchor’ in overwhelming moments.

Designed to help children and adults feel calmer, braver, and more settled at home, at school, or on the go.💛
