- Increases depth and variability of respiration/encourages vocalization.

Absolutely! The Boundex Cuddle Box was designed with parents and traveling therapists in mind. The frame quickly breaks down to fit nicely in the back of your car for easy transport or in your closet when not in use.
The Boundex Cuddle Box can be used for children up to 100 lbs, but tends to be most therapeutic for children between 20-40 lbs, or about 7 months - 4 years old. Smaller, younger children have more opportunities for movement when using the Boundex Cuddle Box, increasing the benefits of the product. If you choose to use the product for a child over 40 lbs, we recommend adding a Teddy Bear Mat or other landing mat beneath the Boundex Cuddle Box. A good rule of thumb is, if the child can climb out of the product or sinks to the ground the product is no longer therapeutic.
