Proprioceptive weighted soft toys - where to get?

[linspins]

Hi all, I am trying to locate a supplier of weighted soft toys, to help with proprioceptive disorders. I know of a little girl who had a 'heavy cat' that she could have on her lap when sitting on the carpet in her classroom, which would help her to feel grounded and secure. Anyone know where to get these kind of toys? I can find plenty of weighted blankets and cushions, but no toys. Ideally we'd like a dragon!!

Hi! Not sure if this is the sort of thing you are looking for? An American company but it looks like they ship to the UK. Quite big and expensive though. I know it's meant to be a lizard but might pass as a dragon.

Hope that helps.

Otherwise I'm thinking maybe one of these microwaveable heat pack thingys? They can be quite heavy?

This isn't a dragon and I'm not sure what price range you are looking at but I think this is the type of thing you want.

Ladies, you are great. It's a shame that two of them are from the US, as that bumps up the price a whole load. The wheat bag may have to do!
Anyone else got a lovely idea?

Thanks Mrs Magnolia. x
