I would imagine that it would help a lot, especially if a child has issues with Sensory Processing Disorder..... some of those kids are "sensory seekers" and work best when wearing a weighted vest or weighted lap pad. Those are the kids that you often see in constant motion... they are seeking sensory information from their environment.... they may be the "rockers" as a child, always rocking themselves to sleep..... they may be the ones that like spinning.....
