Sleep suit for children

Abstract

A sleep suit with compartments gradually increasing in weight from the head to the feet, that covers the torso portion of a child and has an opening for the neck, arms, and legs. The weight is contained in individually sewn compartments in the inner fabric of the suit, keeping the suit's weight properly distributed. The compartments are lighter near the top of the garment that would cover the child's neck and shoulder area, gradually increasing in weight through the middle of the suit that lays over the child's torso. The gradual change in weight ensures child safety and maintains the effectiveness of the pressure around the mid-section.

What is claimed is:

 a body configured to cover a torso portion of a child's body, the body having a neck opening, a pair of shoulders opening, and a pair of legs opening, the body having a front side and a rear side,   wherein the front side of the body is divided into several compartments, the front side comprises:
 a top portion that extends around the neck opening and between the pair of shoulders opening, the top portion is of a pre-determined height, and 
 a lower portion that extends upwards from the pair of legs opening, 
   wherein the weight of the front side of the body is heavier than the rear side, the weight of the top portion of the front side is lesser than the weight of the lower portion.   
     
     
         2 . The sleep suit according to  claim 1 , wherein the front side further comprises:
 a second gradient portion between the top portion and the lower portion, the weight of the second gradient portion is lesser than the lower portion and more than the top portion.   
     
     
         3 . The sleep suit according to  claim 1 , wherein the second gradient portion is of a height same as the pre-determined height of the top portion. 
     
     
         4 . The sleep suit according to  claim 3 , wherein the second gradient portion further extends between a lower portion of the pair of shoulders openings. 
     
     
         5 . The sleep suit according to  claim 2 , wherein the top portion is having a weight density of about 25% the weight density of the lower portion, the second gradient portion is having a weight density of about 40% the weight density of the lower portion. 
     
     
         6 . The sleep suit according to  claim 5 , wherein the front side is having a weight of about 5-20% of a weight of the child's body.

         8 . The sleep suit according to  claim 1 , wherein the front side comprises at least two layers stitched together to form the several compartments, several compartments include granular material. 
     
     
         9 . The sleep suit according to  claim 1 , wherein dimension of the compartments in the top portion is less than the dimensions of the compartments in the lower portion. 
     
     
         10 . The sleep suit according to  claim 1 , wherein the sleep suit further comprises a zipper that extends from the neck opening of the body downwards up to one of the pair of legs openings. 
     
     
         11 . The sleep suit according to  claim 8 , wherein the granular material is seeds. 
     
     
         12 . A method of applying a graded pressure on a body of a child for calming and assisting to sleep, the method comprises the steps of:
 providing, a sleep suit for a child, the sleep suit comprising:
 a body configured to worn over a torso portion of a child's body, the body having a neck opening, a pair of shoulders opening, and a pair of legs opening, the body having a front side and a rear side, 
 wherein the front side of the body is divided into several compartments, the front side comprises:
 a top portion that extends around the neck opening and between the pair of shoulders opening, the top portion is of a pre-determined height, 
 a lower portion that extends upwards from the pair of legs opening, wherein the weight of the front side of the body is heavier than the rear side, the weight of the top portion of the front side is lesser than the weight of the lower portion, and 
 a second gradient portion between the top portion and the lower portion, the weight of the second gradient portion is less than the lower portion and more than the top portion; and 
 
   donning the sleep suit on the child.   
     
     
         13 . The method according to  claim 12 , wherein the top portion is having a weight density of about 25% the weight density of the lower portion, the second gradient portion is having a weight density of about 40% the weight density of the lower portion. 
     
     
         14 . The method according to  claim 13 , wherein the front side is having a weight of about 5-20% of a weight of the child's body.
