Weighted stuffed dinosaur for Matthew for long car rides

Posted Feb 9, 2024
A therapist suggested that Matthew use weighted blankets, vests, and stuffed animals to help him feel calm. He is currently using a weighted blanket while sleeping, but he also wants a weighted stuffed animal for car rides. Matthew has four younger siblings, and the car can be noisy and overwhelming for him, so he hopes that the stuffed animal will help him cope with his anxiety during car rides.

Matthew is 11 years old and lives in ME

Matthew is clever and a good problem-solver. He likes to put things together and take things apart to see how they operate. He is helpful and a hard worker. He wants to learn how to play an instrument such as a guitar or piano. He loves going to the beach and lake with his foster family. He is very close to his 4 siblings, who he lives with, and wants to learn how to build close friendships.
