elja® ECO turtle Galeno with pockets

A heavy , quartz-sand-filled stuffed toy to promote depth perception and concentration . Place it, grasp it, knead it, feel it, pull it, push it, and cuddle it.
 In the spirit of ecology and sustainability, we've expanded our ECO range. The ECO turtle is sewn from 100% organic fabrics . The exception is the sewing thread, which is made of polyester yarn (OEKO-Tex 100 certified) for tear resistance and a wider range of colors. You can find more information about the individual materials under Product Information/Material.
 The weight animal helps you...

 You can better engage with the outside world . The weight of the animal allows you to become more aware of yourself, which promotes external perception.

 to positively support child development
 to feel and experience
 The turtle is ideal for placing on your lap, for example, while reading or doing homework. It's also relaxing to have the turtle on your lap/back/stomach/chest while sitting on the couch. The body senses the weight and thus knows where it begins and ends. This promotes body-spatial awareness. You feel yourself and can thus concentrate on other things.
 The sewn-on shell is a pocket with two openings . Hands can touch and relax in it. It's wonderful to knead the sand inside the turtle's body. Not only does kneading the sand reduce stress levels, but it also increases pressure on the muscles and promotes depth perception even more intensely.
 You can also put a little something in the bag - for example a few small balls - this is exciting and encourages the fingers to explore.
 The Panzer is a great bag for well-being, relaxation and exploration.
 The weighted animals are all lovingly hand-sewn in Lower Austria, each bears a name and comes to your home with your personal message of power.
 They are your companions in kindergarten, at school, in therapy and at home.
 By purchasing a weighted animal you support the elja ® Special Needs Pot.
