Development Process

The idea for our product stemmed from observing the challenges faced by children in therapy sessions, particularly those with ADHD, autism, or anxiety. We noticed a gap in the market for tools that combined sensory benefits with motor skill development in a safe and engaging way. The concept of weighted foam blocks emerged as we brainstormed how to integrate the calming effects of weighted items with the creativity and developmental benefits of building blocks. During the development process, we focused on creating a product that was both functional and appealing. We tested various materials to ensure the blocks were soft, durable, and safe for children. The weights were carefully designed to be adjustable, accommodating different therapeutic needs while maintaining usability. Feedback from therapists and parents guided us in refining the design, ensuring the product met the highest standards for effectiveness and safety. Through this thoughtful process, we created a tool that truly enhances therapy experiences for children.
