A wipe-clean lap pad that helps students settle
The Elizabeth Richards Weighted Wipe Clean Lap Pad, supplier code ERWWCLP, is a 1.3kg lap pad measuring 20cm by 30cm, with a polyester outer and glass bead filling.
Elizabeth Richards says the pad helps students focus, settle down and get ready to learn, and suggests it for circle time, solo reading, tests, homework and other quiet classroom activities. The supplier describes the pressure as proprioceptive feedback that helps with focus and self-regulation, and lists it as a support for children and adults with ADHD, sensory processing disorder or autism.
Care is simple: Elizabeth Richards instructs not to wash the pad and to wipe it down with a damp cloth instead. The supplier calls it a versatile tool for children of different abilities, ages and sizes, and the compact size sits across a student's lap during seated work.
Use it at a desk or on the mat during circle time. For more weighted and calming supports, see sensory toys, early learning and sensory, classroom supplies and the Elizabeth Richards range.
