My son gets massages from me every single day, on his back and feet.. he craves firm pushing and rubbing of his back and feet.

We got a weighted blanket for our son. He sometimes likes to have it on his lap. This blanket is homemade from fabric that numerous pocket/compartments that have rolled up t-shirts within. You can remove some to make the blanket lighter, or keep it full weight.

My son loves, loves, loves, craves deep pressure- Weighted blankets and lots of blankets, weighted toys (my son has a 7 lb stuffed lizard he drags around with him), weighted vest (not a favorite), squeezing his feet, pressing on him, roll him up like a burrito in a foam egg crate pad, roll a therapy ball over him as he lays face down, and ball pit.
