Weighted Vest
The Weighted Vest gives the child complete freedom of movement and is designed for children who don't like to have anything over their legs when sleeping, relaxing or finding peace.
Moonboon's Secure Cell System contains thousands of tiny glass beads that distribute evenly over the entire upper body. According to experts, this has an optimal relaxing effect on the body, helping your child to find their calm and improve sleep quality.
Use the Weighted Vest after an active day, if you wish to help your child find their calm, as part of your nap routine or during the wee hours.
- Full freedom of movement
- Optimal effect and weight distribution
- Developed in collaboration with leading sleep experts
Quote from Mia Bjørnfort, sleep counsellor:
"Some children don't like to wear anything over their legs, either when relaxing or sleeping - perhaps they barely even want to wear clothes. The Weighted Vest is an obvious choice for these children."

Safety and Environmental Certification
The Weighted Vest is designed with safety, comfort and ease of use in mind. The product complies with the EU standard: EN ISO 11092:2014.
The Weighted products are environmentally certified and approved under the OCS Blended Standard. This is your guarantee that the products follow the highest standards, are safe to use, and are suitable for babies and children.
In a daily life filled with new experiences, play and things to learn, some kids may find it hard for their body settle down on their own. Sometimes, it can therefore be nice to get some help and a soothing hand when it is time to relax or go to sleep. The light weight of the product can produce a sensation similar to a hug. The weight can induce a sense of calm on the nervous system and help the child's body settle down and be ready for sleep – safe and sound.
For example, use the Weighted Vest in the pushchair when out for a walk, in the pram before the midday nap, when tucking in your child at bedtime or during sleep. The Weighted Vest has been developed in collaboration with experts, and it is only weighted on the front since we want to support children to sleep safely on their backs.
Moonboon's Weighted Vest fits comfortably over the arms and chest, and it is designed to ensure a good fit and to stay on even during active play and sleep.
The Weighted Vest helps your child feel safe and calm. Use the Weighted Vest after an active day, in the pram, during the witching hour, or as part of the sleep routine.
The Weighted Vest uses Deep Touch Pressure therapy (DTP) - a method that simulates firm sensory proprioceptive input. For example, it could be a firm hug, touching, squeezing or bundling up. Distributing the proprioceptive input evenly over the body has a calming effect on both children and adults.
The Weighted Vest is designed to provide safety and comfort and is easy to use. The product complies with the EU standard: EN ISO 11092:2014 and is certified and approved under the OCS Blended Standard.
The Weighted Vest is designed in accordance with the child's weight to create the safest fit. The Vest has a snug fit over the arms and chest and supports the child's full range of movement to provide the best possible comfort.
The Weighted Vest is available in three sizes to suit the child's weight:
• 9-12 kg
• 12-15 kg
• 15-19 kg
The Secure Cell System of the weighted products, and the light weight of the front part of the Weighted Vest, make it safe to use the product. The Weighted Vest is designed to help create a calming effect and increase sleep quality.
The design supports the child to sleep on their back in accordance with the recommendations of the Danish Health Authority. As a rule of thumb, despite the increased weight, the child should be able to turn over on their own and adjust their sleeping position and the position of their head during sleep. For safety reasons, it is recommended that Weighted products should only be used when the child is 8 months or older.
