Pillow Cradels Sleeping Toddlers

Pillow Cradels Sleeping Toddlers FARM HOME Cars 28-4-31 Have you ever cringed while watching your little guy or gal sleeping in a car seat, neck twisted at what looks like a painful angle? If so, you'll like the ToddlerCoddler invented by Susan Dunk. Designed for children ages 12 months and older, the pillow consists of two 16-in. long, 6-in. wide "wings" connected by a tether that attaches to the seat's headrest, not the child's car seat. "It doesn't inhibit the car seat's function," she says. The wings on the pillow, one fitted to each side of the child, hold the upper body in place as the child falls asleep. ToddlerCoddler is not attached at the bottom so the child can mold it into the most comfortable position. ToddlerCoddler is machine washable and dryer safe. It's filled with hypoallergenic polyester stuffing. Adults can use ToddlerCoddler as well to stay upright when snoozing in a car. ToddlerCoddler's popularity astounds Dunk, a mother of two, who came up with the idea on a fluke and needed to take sewing classes to learn how to create the design she's now patenting. "I had zero intention of turning this into a business," she says. Now, along with her husband and kids, it's her full-time job. They sell for $29.95 plus S&H.
