Product Information
No fillers, just organic cotton
Evenly weighted for deeper sleep
Hand-knitted
with love
Our Nappling is designed especially for kids, to help them switch off after a long day of learning and play. Sleeping under weight is proven to help people do exactly that, by relaxing the body into a naturally deep, longer sleep.
In the Nappling, our signature chunky knit loops are smaller and closer together, so the weighted blanket hugs little ones close. That way, they enjoy the full benefit of a weighted blanket that’s tailored to their small size and shape. Their Nappling should be roughly 10% of their body weight.
The Nappling is knitted from layers of natural organic cotton, which is highly breathable and delightfully soft, for a magical cuddle and just-right coziness whenever it’s time to snuggle up for a snooze.
Free shipping and easy returns.
Materials
Soft, sustainable fabric is the only thing inside our blanket to give it weight.
Our organic long-staple cotton is pre-washed for buttery softness – just like your favorite T-shirt.
OEKO-TEX® 100 and Fairtrade International certified.
100% organic cotton.
A healthier choice for your home and the environment: organic cotton uses up to 90% less water than conventional farming methods and is free from harmful chemicals, pesticides, synthetics, or artificial softeners.
OEKO-TEX® STANDARD 100 ensures this product is safe for your family, the people who manufactured it and the environment.
Care Instructions
All our blankets arrive pre-washed, so there’s no need to wash it before you cuddle up! The Nappling is designed to be snuggled and loved, so that means that when the time comes, it’s easy to wash, too.
When your Nappling is in need of a refresh, wash it separately in cold water on a delicate or permanent-press cycle. Use a mild detergent, and avoid bleach and fabric softeners.
Tumble dry on low.
Note: your Nappling may take more than one cycle to be fully dried. Avoid hanging your Nappling to dry – it'll stretch out its lovely loops.
We offer free shipping and easy returns within the contiguous United States of America.

Cozy, portable, not overheating -- very versatile!
The Labrador pupper claimed it as well, for the same reasons I did!... it quickly became her favorite blanket due to her loving to be cozy, but disliking getting too warm under traditional blankets. She really is quite the blanket connoisseur, and can be trusted in her judgements!
This Bearaby Nappling blanket is so perfect for children, and also adults looking to see if weighted blankets are for them! It's a great starter to a collection, since it's a bit smaller/lighter than the others, and once you discover the joy of sleep with a weighted blanket you'll want to travel with this smaller Nappling, or keep it on the couch, or wrap it around you while working, etc... whether it's work work, homework, paperwork, chores, reading for enjoyment, etc.
Also, I recently washed it for the first time (after about a month, because pupper got some mud/dirt on it), and i was thrilled about how well it washed up and dried.
This is a massive upgrade and so much better than an old glass-bead-filled weighted blanket I have... I would wake up in a puddle of sweat under that unbreathable thing, but Bearaby has solved those problems and I am so grateful.
I plan to get some additional Bearaby blankets and/or other products... but the Nappling is going to get a lot of use over many years, even as I add to my Bearaby collection :)
I expect to get a bit larger/heavier one for my bed in the near future, and then this Nappling will be used everywhere else and it's beautiful so I keep it on…

Best for snuggling
Got this for my granddaughter who is 10 and a very active sleeper. She did not like it on her bed at night but loves it for snuggling while watching TV.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do weighted blankets work?
The magical calming effect of a weighted blanket comes from something called Deep Touch Pressure (DTP) Therapy, which is the act of placing an even weight all over the body.
For little ones, it can help them to feel safer, and more secure – it’s like getting a comforting hug from your blanket! It can help make bedtimes less stressful, and lull your littles into a deep, blissful sleep.
Here’s what the science says about DTP:
It increases serotonin, which makes you feel happier and more content
It increases melatonin, which helps you to fall asleep
It decreases cortisol, helping to reduce anxiety and stress
Can a 4-year-old use a weighted blanket?
Nappling are safe for children aged four years and older.
Using a weighted blanket for a toddler or a baby poses safety risks and we do not recommend using our weighted blanket for very young children.
What are the benefits of weighted blankets for kids?
The benefits of a weighted blanket for kids are rooted in the science of Deep Touch Pressure (DTP) Therapy. Like the soothing feeling of a warm hug or how a baby is soothed when swaddled, the DTP children experience when resting under a weighted blanket naturally helps comfort and calm them.
DTP is proven to increase serotonin levels. Serotonin naturally converts into melatonin, also known as our body’s sleep hormone. During naptime or bedtime, this natural conversion can do wonders in helping your child fall asleep faster and stay asleep longer.
If your child tends to be a sensory-seeker and has difficulty sleeping, a weighted blanket can be the perfect tool to help them calm down and naturally find better sleep over time.
How do you use a kids weighted blanket?
Kids can use weighted blankets in a variety of ways:
During nap time
During night time
Draped over little laps when doing homework
If your child feels anxious, the “hugging” feeling of resting under a weighted blanket can bring about a greater sense of calm.
Pull out a Nappling when your little one needs some downtime – Napplings pair great with a book on the couch!
