In my last couple posts I focused on the kids with the Jessie Halloween Costume and Woody Halloween Costume posts. Today I will continue my focus on kids, discussing My Pillow Pets.My son was first introduced to My Pillow Pets Panda at a friend’s home. They both fought over it the entire time he was there and when the time came to leave he insisted on walking away with his friend’s toy/pillow. Of course he did not get his way.
Shortly after this episode I decided to purchase a couple for him. Although as a baby he has had a lot of soft, cuddly toys he was never drawn to them and so I gave them away to avoid the clutter. I figured that if the My Pillow Pets were a one day wonder for him I can use them as adornment for his bed. Very expensive adornment at that!
The arrival of My Pillow Pets Panda and Buzzy Bumble Bee was a momentous day at our home. My four year old son squealed in delight and promptly dragged his two pillows into his playroom and for that matter everywhere he went.

Just to give you a brief description, these pillow pets are indeed adorable even more so than all the pictures you will see of them, they are quite large and extremely soft. Its no wonder kids loves them.
Here is what I wish I knew before I purchased though.
- It took almost two weeks to get the order. Even though it said 5 in stock on Amazon apparently when I placed my order there was actually no stock so I had to wait for restock. These pets are popular so stock availability is limited.
- My son likes sleeping on his pillow pet which is not really ideal as soft as they are. The extra soft furriness can cause a lot of sweating in very hot climates. I have to remember to go to my son’s room and replace the pillow after he has fallen asleep.
- If your pillow pets get dirty you have to place them in a white pillow case, tie off the ends and wash in the machine, then air dry. Cleaning requires this bit of extra effort so be warned.
- Please be forewarned that there are fakes available, the quality is not as good as the real deal.
Other than those my son is quite happy with the pets and five months later he is still very attached to his pets. In an effort to reduce washing I do not let him take the pets outside although I have allowed them in the car.
