Supported by evidence-based research, Eleanor the Weighted Elephant uses Deep Pressure Touch Stimulation (DPTS)—a gentle, firm sensory input that supports the body’s proprioceptive system. This calming pressure mimics the feeling of a secure hug, which may encourage the release of serotonin and dopamine, helping children regulate emotions, particularly at bedtime or during moments of overwhelm.
Eleanor, along with her Four Senses friends, offers gentle mindfulness tools to help children understand the importance of their senses and develop simple self-soothing strategies.
While Eleanor is soft, comforting, and designed for cuddles, she is also a sensory support item and should be handled with care. We recommend gentle use only, with no rough play or washing, to maintain her quality and safety. While we aim to create products that are both durable and nurturing, Grow and Flow cannot be held responsible for any damage caused by improper use. Thank you for treating Eleanor with the love she deserves.
