Sensory Pod Australia has created a step-by-step guide on how to extend the lifespan of your weighted toy. Our tips and techniques will help you keep your toy in excellent condition for as long as possible.

If the weighted toy is intended for a child or someone who may require supervision, ensure that an adult is present during use. This will help prevent any accidents or misuse of the toy. Supervision is essential for young children or individuals who may have difficulty understanding potential risks.

All weighted toys must be handled with care, especially those weighing more than 1.5kg. You should always use two hands to pick up the toy, holding it by the middle of the body. Picking up a toy by the head, arm, or leg may cause the stitching to break.

Spot cleaning: For minor stains or localised dirt, spot cleaning is usually sufficient. Use a clean cloth or sponge and gentle soap to dab the affected area. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials that could damage the fabric or weighted material.

Handwashing: If your weighted toy is small enough and doesn't have electronic components, handwashing is an effective option. Fill a basin or sink with lukewarm water and add a mild detergent. Gently submerge the toy and agitate it to remove any dirt or grime. Rinse thoroughly and squeeze out excess water. Allow the toy to air dry completely before using it again.
