I am looking for 1 pound ankle weights for my 21 month old daughter for some physical therapy she is doing. Do you think these could work for toddler?

I think these are a bit large for a small toddler. I would look for 1 lb wrist weights instead.

Yes, these could work in that situation. Good luck with the PT work! She's lucky to have you as her parent :-)

Possibly. They are pretty wide (about the width of an adult male's hand). The velcro attachment, though, gives a fair bit of range in how securely you tighten them, so they might work for a toddler (with supervision, of course).

No. I would not use it on a young child. I would check with her pediatrician for the green light to use it. Just show the picture to the pediatrician.

They can wrap around quite a small object. If they are not too heavy, they might do the job.

Ask doctor. I'm not sure how that weight would effect her, but these are pretty decent for adults.

Probably not....they are really small. They are made for a toddler not a ten year old. Was very disappointed when they came. They are just so tiny.

Absolutely. We use for Kindergarten-small adults. They are fitted enough not to fall off little ones but big enough to fit people up to about 120 lbs.

The description indicates the pads are for children 2-5 years of age but do not mention weight. I believe if they still fit the weight of the child does not matter. Hope this helps.

This is designed for adults, i.e. for weights around 200lbs. I suspect a toddler would be too light. In addition a toddler may want to hang from the stabilizer bar which could tip the whole thing over.

I would say it depends on the coordination level and physical size of the child. They work well for my 2 and 1/2 year old son but my daughter is very petite and I do not think they would have worked well for her at the same age. I hope this helps.

Yes. Only ones I was able to find to fit my toddler @ 5th percentile. Been using since they were around that age.

my seven year old is above average. so it is best to weigh them and go according to the weight on the pads.

Yes. I purchases these weights for my granddaughters. We have tried several different leg weights and they both say that these weights are so comfortable. One plays basketball for her HS. And her sister is on the dance team. They both run 2 miles every day and love these weights. My basketball player uses them during practice.

Our daughter (now 14 months) is below the 5th % in weight and around 50th % in height (with a 95% head - go figure) and this vest worked well for her this summer (when she was much younger and smaller than she is now). I can say I would be confident using this vest on your 1 year old.

One (1) lb. The beauty of these ankle weights is their design. Each ankle weight has individual "sleeves" or slots, unlike most ankle weights, and can be adjusted as your training progresses and your body adapts to the given exercise. Each individual slot holds a 1 lb. weight. If you take out each individual weight out of each individual slot and leave only 1 weight in one of the slots, you'll have a 1 lb. ankle weight. If you want to add more weight, you can do so very easily.

Hello, happy to help if I can. I bought these for my wife, her ankles are 5" in diameter. She reports that she can cinch these weights right down and they work fine for her. A happy wife is a happy life....

My four year old uses them. I think for a one year old they may slip off and be a little big.

Yes I would go with these for your weight. If you go to the next level up it will be much harder to learn. And you can always replace the springs if you grow out of them. They will adjust to your feet with the binding straps. These are EXTREMELY hard to find in store which is why I ordered mine online.

I have this and it is perfect for kids 1-3 20lbs- 40lbs. My 4 yr old daughter was to heavy

They are durable and would stand up to being dropped by a toddler but they may be a little too heavy for a toddler to use.

My boys were about a year when we tried these, and they had a hard time keeping their balance and not tipping over. Im hoping this summer at age 2 it will work better...good luck!
