    Pillow FAQ

    What size pillow is best for kids?

    This depends on a number of factors.

    If you are wanting to use a standard twin size pillow case, go for a standard sized pillow.

    If you like using pillow cases interchanging them from room to room, go for a larger size like queen or king. I promise your kids will like the bigger pillow.

    Another thing to remember too is that usually the bigger the pillow, the more it will cost.two-kids-playing-on-a-stack-of-pillows

    How to choose a pillow for a child?

    -machine washable- things get messy so being able to wash the pillow in a washer at home is so much better than a dry-clean only.

    -big enough to grow with-pick a size that your child can grow with so you don't have to keep buying more pillows.

    What about a toddler size pillow?

    While these toddler size pillows are great for younger kids, as they grow, your child will want a bigger pillow.

    We recommend opting for a standard size pillow from the beginning or even bigger.
