Mr. Sandman 5 lb Weighted Blanket for Twin Bed — Star Moon Blue Cotton, Breathable Even-Weight Glass Beads 36×48

Mr. Sandman 5 lb Star Moon Blue weighted blanket is a 36" x 48" breathable cotton cover filled with premium glass beads designed to provide gentle, even pressure for people weighing about 40–60 pounds.

This twin-size blanket combines a soft cotton face with finely milled glass beads and a seven-layer pocket system to keep weight evenly distributed without clumping or noise. The Star Moon Blue print uses colorfast dyeing for lasting tones, while eight sewn securing loops allow attachment to a duvet cover for year-round use. Intended for ages over three and users at least 30 pounds, the 5 lb option is sized to suit smaller children or anyone preferring a lighter weighted wrap.

How does this blanket deliver even, quiet weight across the body?

The blanket uses fine glass beads sewn into individual pockets across a seven-layer internal structure so weight won't shift or gather. Strong stitching and durable pocket walls reduce bead migration and minimize noise for a calm sleep environment.

• Seven-layer pocket construction prevents bead pooling
• Premium non-toxic glass beads are anti-magnetic and low-noise
• Reinforced seams and quilting keep distribution consistent

Is the Mr. Sandman weighted blanket safe and breathable for regular use?

Yes — the outer fabric is 100% breathable cotton to help airflow while the internal layers secure the beads safely. Follow the manufacturer’s guidelines: use for ages three and older and for individuals at least 30 pounds; choose blanket weight around 8–10% of the user’s body weight for best comfort.

• Breathable cotton surface reduces heat buildup
• Glass beads are non-toxic and designed not to leak
• Eight corner loops allow secure attachment to a duvet cover

How should I care for and maintain the blanket?

The blanket is machine-washable on a gentle, cold cycle and should be air-dried when possible; tumble dry on low if necessary. Proper care preserves the fabric, prevents clumping, and keeps colors vibrant thanks to the advanced dyeing process.

• Machine wash cold, gentle cycle
• Hang dry recommended; low tumble dry if needed
• Resists pilling, shedding, and deformation with normal care
