I commonly use a neck roll draped on the neck to help
support a child in improving his or her regulation. Warming
it up in a micowave increases its effectiveness in helping children to
calm. My daughter, when she was younger, would take a warmed neck
roll to bed with her to help fall asleep. They are very simple to sew.

- Cut a piece of fabric 24 inches by 8 inches.
- Fold it in half with the fnished side of the fabric on the inside.
- Sew a seam on one end and the side, leaving one end open
- Use a pencil or ruler to turn the tube right side out
- Fill about 2/3 full of flax seeds (You can hold the
end of the tube closed and check how it drapes on your neck before you
finish it).
- Turn about 3/4" of the fabric in at the end, sew a seam to close the tube.
