Our Full Review

When your toddler transitions out of the crib (or just starts wanting a pillow like a "big kid"), you can't just hand them a regular pillow. Adult pillows are way too thick and can actually cause neck issues for small children. The KeaBabies toddler pillow is sized specifically for kids 18 months to 5 years, with a 13x18 inch dimension that supports their head without propping their neck at a weird angle. The filling is a soft polyester fiber blend that's firm enough for support but squishy enough that toddlers actually like lying on it. It comes with a cute pillowcase in various patterns, and both the pillow and case are fully machine washable and dryer safe. After countless washes (because sippy cups in bed happen), it's held its shape well. The outer shell is breathable cotton and doesn't get hot. We introduced this at 20 months when our daughter started stacking stuffed animals under her head, and she took to it immediately. The price is really reasonable too, especially with the pillowcase included.

What We Like

  • Properly sized for toddler heads and necks, not just a shrunken adult pillow
  • Machine washable pillow and pillowcase together
  • Breathable cotton outer shell that doesn't make kids sweaty
  • Very affordable price point with pillowcase included
  • Holds shape well even after many wash cycles

What Could Be Better

  • Some parents wish the filling were slightly firmer
  • Not recommended for babies under 18 months (and shouldn't be used for them)

Safety Notes

Not for children under 18 months. The American Academy of Pediatrics recommends no pillows in the crib during infancy. Only introduce a pillow when your child has transitioned to a toddler bed or is old enough per your pediatrician's guidance.

Buying Guide Notes

This is a great starter pillow at a price that won't hurt if your toddler isn't interested yet. If you want an organic option, the Little Sleepy Head Organic is a step up in price. The Coop Home Goods toddler pillow lets you adjust the fill amount. For most families, the KeaBabies is the sweet spot of quality and price.
