Choosing a weight, and using it safely. Occupational therapists who reviewed the manimo weighted animals for the Canadian Association of Occupational Therapists advise choosing roughly 10–12% of the user's body weight, and using it only with someone able to lift and move it off themselves. Recommended from age three. Not suitable for anyone who frequently chews non-food objects. Check the fabric regularly for small holes, since the beads inside pose a choking or inhalation risk if it is breached. Read what the reviewers found.
