What Makes A Weighted Blanket A Good Gift?
The art of gift giving is a bit of a science. What makes a good gift isn’t so much about what you buy or how much you spend, but rather the individual you are buying for. You want to strike the balance between surprise (something they don’t expect) whilst appealing to them as something they need. And who doesn’t need more sleep?
While your mom would likely prefer a nice, warm bear hug from you, you could give her the next best thing on Mother’s Day with a My Blanket USA weighted blanket. Our weight blankets come in a wide variety of colors and are available in three different weights (12lbs, 15lbs, and 20lbs) and sizes (twin, queen, and king).
We have identified the most common reasons as to why people buy a weighted blanket:
- Helps them sleep better (disrupted sleep, Insomnia)
- Helps them relax (Stress, anxiety)
- Helps with aches and pains (Fibromyalgia, Restless Leg Syndrome)
- Used as a comforter (Children with anxiety, Autism Gifts Weighted Blanket)
- If you know anyone where they could benefit from easing their experiences of the above conditions, then a Weighted Blanket could be the perfect gift!

How heavy of a blanket should I get for my mom or grandmother?
It’s best to get 10% of the body weight for an adult woman, and for anyone over the age of 65 - get a lighter weight to provide the comfort that an older person is looking for without an overbearing amount of weight – older people will sleep better at night with a weighted blanket (sleep tends to become a problem as we age).
We offer a wide selection of colors that are unique and beautiful. Think of your mom or grandmother cuddling on the couch with their weighted blanket and a hot cup of tea, so comfy! Weighted blankets are much more useful than soap or stamps and it doesn’t fade away like flowers!
