OLIVE KIDS FLOOR PILLOWS - a great gift!
With all of the recent toy recalls, parents are looking for safe alternatives for holiday gifts. We were fortunate to come across Olive Kids' new personalized floor pillows. As described on their website, the removable machine washable outer shell is made of supersoft plush, with beautifully embroidered icons that match each of their kids bedding patterns. The inner pillow is gusseted, quilted, 100% cotton with a sterilized polyester fill. 
Every child loves to see their name in print! Olive Kids has tons of gift items that you can personalize including clocks and placemats! Olive Kids' is a online business that specializes in kids bedding and accessories that help create a fun and creative room for kids. No TV characters, just fun, colorful kids bedding for boys and girls at a great price! OK is owned by the Brandwein family right here in New England.Their philosophy is that kids' rooms should be fun and creative and they created an alternative to tv and movie characters. In addition to the Floor Pillows, they have a great selection of gifts for children starting at under $10.
