Description
Gentle weighted eye mask filled with glass beads for light deep pressure around the eyes and forehead. Adjustable strap fits kids and adults. Soft, breathable fabric blocks light while providing calming input.
Why it helps
Gentle pressure around the eyes and forehead targets the trigeminal nerve, which triggers a calming parasympathetic response. Combined with light-blocking, this reduces visual and tactile stimulation simultaneously to promote faster sleep onset.
Pros
- Adjustable strap fits kids through adults
- Light enough for kids at only 0.5 lbs
- Can be cooled in freezer or warmed
- Machine washable cover
Cons
- Some kids dislike anything on their face
- May shift during active sleep
