Pillow Cube, a Lindon-based maker of memory foam pillows that it advertises as “the side-sleeper’s favorite accessory,” has introduced a line of pillows designed for children. The new Pillow Cubs iteration of the company’s product line is being advertised as a “toy by day and a pillow by night.”
Pillow Cube says that sleeping on one’s side is beneficial for respiration, circulation, reduced snoring and digestion and that the Pillow Cubs encourage the position at a young age. The product “is intended to deliver soft and supportive side sleep with an extra cuddly touch to make bedtime more enjoyable for children,” a Pillow Cube release said.
Joining the brand’s portfolio of sleep solutions, Pillow Cube Classic and Pillow Cube Pro, the Pillow Cubs are offered in five animal-themed versions: Sleepy Shark, Uniquely Unicorn, Bravery Bear, Silly Sloth and Helpful Husky.
“Getting children to fall asleep and stay asleep can be a nightly battle. We want to make this process stress-free for parents and more agreeable for kids,” said Pillow Cube CEO Jay Davis. “As side sleeping specialists, we wanted to bring to market a pillow that had all the same qualities that Pillow Cube lovers have fallen in love with, but in a format that would appeal best to little ones. Not to mention, my kids kept stealing my pillows.”
Pillow Cubs feature a machine-washable outer cover and a non-toxic foam core. Davis pointed out that all of Pillow Cube’s products are made in the United States.
