If you keep track of all things squishable, you’re probably already onto the next TikTok craze: The [game-changing] weighted pillow. Kids and adults (we won’t judge!) are freaking out over these stuffed animal-esque throw pillows from Pillowfort that are as cute and calming as they are practical. We’re personally obsessed with the pink dinosaur that weighs in at 3 pounds and is just $20 at Target. Just think of it as a weighted blanket that’s been repackaged into a stuffy. A stuffy that can be snuggled or used as a fun throw pillow for a nap or plain ol’ decor.
If a pink dino isn’t your aesthetic, there’s also a green one, a unicorn, and Stitch (Yes, of Lilo & Stitch). He’s not quite as pillow-esque, but Disney fans will love him all the same.
Pillowfort Dinosaur Weighted Plush Kids Throw Pillow
Shoppers are insisting that buying this “perfect” dino was the “best 20 bucks they’ve ever spent.”
“Buy it RN!!! The best pillow ever its so soft and comfortable to sleep with i cant sleep without it,” one person said.
“Not only for kids!” another insisted. “I bought the green dinosaur for my son…we both loved it so much. I had to have my own! I’m only sad I didn’t know of this sooner!”
“Feels better hugging this than a regular non-weighted plush or bear. It helps calms me down when I place it on my chest from the added weight. Great for imagining yourself hugging your significant other in a long-distance relationship as well. The size is perfect too :)”
“My son sleeps with this every night! He has a hard time at night some times, this Dino helps him feel secure. The weight is just the right amount.”
