From toddlers to
teens — and every age in between — when it comes to building
the perfect bed for your child, there’s a lot to consider.

At Sheridan, when it comes to bedding essentials for your children, we’ve made it easy.
Pillows, quilts and protectors crafted with consideration, for dream worthy sleep.

Whether it’s their first “big kids bed”, or you’re just trying to keep up with growth spurts,
we’ll take you through the steps of finding the right bedding for your child.

More than just a place for your little one to rest their head as they drift off to dreamland — and a tool in family pillow fights — a good quality pillow helps support their head and neck, especially as they grow and develop. 

Best types of pillows for your child

Although adults and parents are able to choose from a wider variety of pillows, children’s pillows need to share similar characteristics,
to provide sufficient support for their heads, necks and upper spines.

The best pillows for toddlers are smaller, firmer pillows. As your child grows older, the width and length of their pillow can increase; however,
firmness should be considered throughout, to assist with support, growth and development.

Although we suggest lower profile pillows for children, the profile of a pillow may come down to personal preference.

For a truly restful night of sleep — or as close as you can get to one, when it comes to kids — there’s nothing that helps quite like a quilt. Ideal for keeping children cosy and comfortable as they rest.

The best quilts for toddlers and kids

With toddlers sleeping between 11-14 hours a day, and teenagers needing 8-10 hours a night, a quilt is an essential part of your child's sleep.

Younger children often sleep warm and restless, oftentimes kicking off extra bedding in their sleep.

An outer cover that’s breathable is ideal; look for offerings that have been crafted with fibres originating from a natural source, including plant-derived options like cotton.

At the end of the day, it does depend on your child and their personal preferences, and if they have any sensitivities to note. And parents, the best quilt for you is one that’s machine washable — as young ones might be prone to spills or accidents, easy care is important.
