The use of pillows is extremely common with people all over the globe due to the added comfort they provide. While most kids and adults will prefer to sleep with pillows at night, they are not always a good idea for babies who may not be able to roll over at night. While the typical pillow may not be a good addition to a crib, there are situations in which custom baby pillows can be a good idea.
Support with Flat Head Syndrome
A common challenge that many babies and parents deal with is flat head syndrome. This condition is very common and typically poses no health risks, but could result in a flat spot on the child’s head if it is not properly cared for. While many people will use helmets to help correct this, supportive pillows can also help. These customized pillows are made with customized Pillow Protector Foam that is specifically designed to help with some mild cases of this condition. It can be used in conjunction with the use of a baby helmet or on its own.
Provided Comfort
For older kids, typically recommended being at least 24 months in age, adding a pillow can be a great way to make sleeping more comfortable. Around this age, kids start to feel more independent and may want to spend less time in their cribs. One issue that can encourage them to want to leave the crib, even more, is if they are not comfortable. Fortunately, a unique custom pillow can provide them with this additional comfort. Typically, these pillows are smaller and can double as both a comfort item and a toy.
Personalized Style
When you want to get a new pillow for your child, you should also make it something that they will be excited to use. Older kids that can receive pillows will likely have favorite colors, styles, and patterns already that can make use of the pillow fun and exciting. There are also options available that can help make the pillows look like some of their favorite characters from shows, movies, or even video games.
Providing your kids with the ability to sleep comfortably is very important. While most babies should not sleep with a standard pillow, the use of some baby pillows including those from Lil Cuddlers can provide a variety of benefits. These can help with flat head syndrome and also help them get a good night’s sleep.
