Oversized Cooling Penguin Cuddle Cushion for Rest, Comfort and Calm
A soft, friendly companion for winding down and feeling settled.
The Penguin Cuddle Cushion is a delightfully soft, oversized plush made for snuggles, rest time and cosy comfort. With its friendly face, jumbo size and cool-touch fabric, this cuddly companion is a calming presence for children who love something soft to hold, lean on or curl up beside, especially when they need a little reassurance at the end of the day.
Why children love it
For kids who find it hard to wind down, or who feel calmer with something familiar close by, the penguin offers gentle tactile comfort and a soothing sense of routine. The cool-touch fabric keeps it comfortable against warm skin, so it makes a welcome companion at bedtime, during transitions, or any time emotions feel a bit big.
Add the Comfort Insert (optional)
Add the optional 1.8 kg Comfort Insert for a gentle, grounding, hug-like feel that helps little ones settle. It slips into the hidden inner pouch and lifts out just as easily, so you can adjust the feel to suit the moment.
How to use it
Use it during quiet time, on the bed, or in a calming corner. Children can cuddle, lean on or lie beside the penguin for comfort and security. Keep it nearby as part of a bedtime routine or during rest breaks through the day. Spot clean with a damp cloth when needed.

They both do not sound the alarm every time it hits the zero mark until a second or third try.
Great product, very sturdy and all my kids love it, it did take awhile to get here however, but once here it's a new favourite in this house, very well made product. Worth the money that's for sure.
I first tried it in a therapy session I didn’t know the weight would assist more but it did I then really wanted one for myself as that one was my therapists one.
I find everyone is different to what they find helpful. i bought two others but I didn’t find them as useful as the cube for myself. So im grateful i found this one and its pretty solid so it prob last a while as long as I dont loose it
Or another claim it!!
My daughter has overwhelming sensory issues when it comes to her head and hair; this brush is a life-changer for us! It does everything they promise. Much happy, very recommend.

Thanks for your feedback 😊 The Ear Defenders are adjustable and can be extended for a larger fit. We'll email you instructions on how to adjust them, which should give you a much more comfortable fit.
Very high quality and such a great product for helping the kids feel calm.
Very nice design and the fluffy side is nice and soft. Fits nicely in my work bag so i can use it at home and work every day
It works well with other wighted blankets too for some extra pressure where its needed
It is the most beautiful rug. Just as described. My only problem is I would have liked it to be delivered by a courier other than Australia post. As I have a lot of problems with the aus post courier.
Its aethestically pleasing for the toilet. Its quite good and hygienic for kids to clean the toilet without the mess of a wet toilet brush. However it would be a good idea to consider precautionary measures to prevent kids accidentally dropping it into the loo whilst using it.
My 35 yr old daughter tried it , she said it goes very fast it’s good for core strength. We haven’t had any kids on it yet but there will be some at my Christmas party this year.
This Mat is incredible- so soft and beautiful for my high sensory boy to enjoy and help him regulate after a school day- the whole family loves it! Huge bonus it looks amazing and the colours are so neutral they match the room perfectly- Thankyou so much !
