Calmer bedtimes
A soft, soothing hug that makes bedtime cosier – and your child goes to bed without the struggle.
Like you are still there
A hugging feeling all over the body, even after you have said good night and left the room.
Hood and open foot end
The hood can be pulled over the head and the pod is open at the bottom – easy to get in and out.
No extra weight
Not a weighted blanket – the hug comes from the stretchy fabric, and it is easy to move around in the pod.
Sound familiar?
- Bedtime drags on and ends in tears – your child’s, and sometimes yours too
- Your child wants you in the room – or in the bed – to fall asleep
- Your child likes to be snugly wrapped up when falling asleep
- Your child is restless at bedtime, afraid of the dark or comes to you in the middle of the night
Many parents of children with ADHD know those evenings when the body just will not stop. The gentle deep pressure of the sleep pod wraps your child like a soothing hug – so they can calm down, settle in and fall asleep.
The hooded sleep pod is made for exactly these evenings.
A cosy hug.
In kids’ sizes XS–M.
The hooded sleep pod is a stretchy pod that wraps your child in gentle pressure all over – a cosy feeling that says: now it is time to relax.
Your child slips in, feels the soft hug, and the rest comes naturally.
Why does gentle pressure feel so cosy?
The idea is the same as swaddling a baby – gentle deep pressure from every side that calms body and mind. It is not a duvet. Not a weighted blanket either. It is closer to swaddling – just for bigger kids.
A hug for the whole body
The pod hugs your child from every side and gives soft, even pressure all over the body.
A cosy, tucked-in feeling
Many children love being snugly wrapped up – much like getting a warm hug.
A fixed part of the bedtime routine
Once the pod becomes part of bedtime, it turns into a simple signal that it is time to rest.
What the first week can look like
New and exciting
The shape turns the pod into a bit of a game, and many kids want to try it on the very first evening.
Your child gets used to the feeling
Give your child a few evenings to get used to the pod and make it their own.
Part of the routine
The pod becomes a fixed part of bedtime – a signal that it is time to relax.

Description
The Hlýfaðmur hooded sleep pod is a stretchy pod that wraps around the whole body – for kids who love feeling snugly wrapped up when it is time for bed.
A hug from every side:
The stretchy fabric hugs the body and gives soft, even pressure – a feeling a lot like being held.
Hood and open foot end:
The hood comes up from the back panel – pull it over your head when you want some peace and quiet. The foot end is open, so your feet can come out and it is easy to get in and out.
Not a weighted blanket:
No extra weight. The pod is made of thin, stretchy jersey that feels cool to the touch and does not trap heat – the pressure comes from the stretch, not from kilos.
Solid colors, 7 to choose from:
Navy blue, graphite gray, ruby red, dark green, purple, sky blue and pink.
Sizes XS, S and M:
Total length with hood – XS: 140 cm · S: 150 cm · M: 170 cm. All measurements are in the size chart. If you are between sizes, or like to sleep hugging a pillow or with one between your legs, choose the larger size.
30-night sleep trial:
Try it at home for up to 30 nights. If the pod is not right for you, you can return it or exchange the size within 30 days of delivery. Sleep trial terms
