Best for Kids: Sivio Weighted Blanket for Kids

 What you'll love: Weighted blankets are beneficial for kids, especially those with ADHD, according to research. The catch: Your little one shouldn't use the same weighted blanket as an adult. Instead, a 2-pound, 3-pound, 5-pound, 7-pound, or 10-pound option will be better suited to their body size. This kids weighted blanket not only comes in fun, colorful patterns that children are sure to love, but it's also received more than 4,000 five-star reviews from shoppers. Bonus: A 100% cotton cover makes it breathable, even in warmer seasons.

Keep in mind: Some parents reported the blanket wasn't large enough to cover their children's twin beds, so be sure to measure before ordering.

Rave review: "The first night we used it for my daughter she slept SO WELL!" said a shopper. "She has a very difficult time falling asleep for quite some time now, [so] we started seeing a slew behavior specialist, and she recommended a weighted blanket for her. I purchased this one when we got home from our initial appointment and I have NOT been disappointed with this blanket yet, and I don't think I ever will be."

Rave review: "The weight is very evenly distributed so that it sort of cocoons around me without my feeling constrained or confined. The 'minky' cover feels great but I get too hot under it so I ordered the smooth cotton cover.
