This pillow is designed to support the unique shape of each child's head and adapt to their individual needs. It sinks in where it needs to, while still maintaining its supportive structure under the heaviest parts of the head. It's small and perfectly to suit kids of all ages. 

This pillow is the perfect sleeping companion, but that doesn't mean more practical, non-sleep related considerations haven't been taken into account. The soft cover can be easily taken off and washed and is made from hypoallergenic materials to keep everyone happy. 

Pillows for kids can often be very small, which is great if your youngster is still in a cot, but if they've grown enough to move into a bigger bed it might be time to move on to a bigger pillow too. That's why this pillow is perfect for kids who are 4 years and older. 

The pillow uses squishy memory foam so your child can find just the right position. Plus, the bamboo cover keeps things cool and can be taken off and washed to freshen it up - essential given its bright white colour! 

This pillow is designed for babies who are just learning how to sleep with a pillow. The teddy bear design is very sweet, but it is the way that the shape supports your baby's head that is the real star of the show. 

With a hole in the centre, surrounded by memory foam, you can place your baby's head in the middle and know that it will be supported from every angle. Best of all, the cover of this pillow can be taken off and washed and the memory foam filling can be wiped clean! 

If a simple travel pillow just won't cut it, you need this clever product that can be worn in all sorts of ways to offer your child's neck and head the maximum support. Whether their head lolls from side to side or front to back, this head rest has them covered!

It can be annoying to carry travel pillows around with you as they are often quite bulky. Luckily, this pillow manages to solve that problem by folding down to 30% of its normal size. In addition to this, it has case which you can use to carry it around when it's not in use. 

Bamboo is a bit of a wonder material, and in this pillow, all of its benefits are used to full effect. The fabric is super breathable, making it the perfect choice for hot nights. You'll need to put a pillowcase on top, but the ultra-soft bamboo cover certainly adds to the overall comfort of the pillow. 

The smaller size means it works better for little heads, cots and tiny beds. The filling is made from memory foam, offering excellent cushioning and making it a pillow that will adapt to all your kid's tossing and turning at night.

This product is a great choice for a first pillow, whether tit's for a cot or their first proper bed. It's hypoallergenic to stop sneezing, sore eyes and asthma. Plus, this pillow has been rigorously tested to make sure it is suitable for young children, so you can rest easy knowing your child will have a safe sleep. 

The synthetic fabric might be what gives the pillow its anti-allergy properties, but polyester does share the same problem that these types of fabrics all suffer from - and that's the lack of breathability.

This pillow comes with a removable case, so it's ready to be used as soon as you get it. The natural cotton used for the outer material will keep your kids' heads cool on hot days, and let's not forget how soft it is! 

Although it's made from natural materials, this pillow isn't hypoallergenic, which is something to consider if your child suffers from allergies. This means it's slightly more on the expensive side, too.

The simple travel pillow design has been redesigned to look like a sleeping fox, an additional feature that will really draw kids in! This pillow does more than just look good, though. With its hypoallergenic properties, kids who are sensitive to dust will be able to rest their heads without a problem.

The design of this pillow might have been upgraded in terms of style, but the shape might not provide the degree of support and comfort that your child needs to sleep whilst travelling. 

This might look like a normal pillow, but it has been specially tailored to children. The fill has been reduced to improve the alignment of the neck, head and back. Furthermore, Little Slumbers take allergies seriously, and have created a product that provides asthma and dust mite protection.  

On the downside, this pillow is not made from any natural materials. Whilst polyester is fine for pillows, it can be very hot as it doesn't breathe as well as other fibres. 

Trunki are most famous for their child-friendly suitcases, seen in airports all over the world. Now, you can buy a matching travel pillow to help your child rest whilst going on their adventures. This pillow is held in place round the child's neck with magnets connecting the two ends, and children are sure to love the cute design of an animal's face.

Sadly, this pillow is very basic and might not offer as much support as other options. The manufacturer also don't specify the materials from which it's made, making life more difficult for those with allergies.
