Mermaid Positivity Pillows
On one side of a Mermaid Positivity Pillow there’s an illustration and inspiring message like “Fairies Soar” or “Sharks Think.” The other side is covered with sequins that you can “draw” on and then “erase” with a few swipes of a finger. (It’s so calming and satisfying you’ll want a pillow for yourself!) Your kiddo can also soothe while on the go with a matching sequin bracelet. $25 to $48 for pillow, and $15 for bracelet.
