Generally, it is recommended to wait until a child is at least 2 years old before giving them a pillow.
The American Academy of Pediatrics does not recommend letting a toddler under the age of 2 years use a pillow (07-Apr-2023). Once a toddler transitions from a crib to a bed, it's generally considered safe to introduce pillows and other bedding.
Here's a simple breakdown:
| Age | Pillow Recommendation |
|---|---|
| Under 2 years | Not Recommended |
| 2+ years | Generally Safe |
