What Your Child Makes

The Space Pillow Kit turns a galaxy blue pillowcase into a pillow that is truly out of this world. Kids fill it with as much or as little stuffing as they like, then use the needle and thread to sew the opening shut with a ladder stitch, following the diagram in the instructions. Next comes the fun part: they choose their favorite patches and arrange their own space scene, attaching each one with the fabric glue or stitching it on for extra sewing practice.

A First Sewing Project with a Bonus

A pillow is a great first sewing project, because one neat seam turns a pile of stuffing into something kids can hug, nap on, and keep on their bed. Every kit also comes with a handheld telescope, complete with a strap, a case, and a cleaning cloth, so young space fans can keep exploring once the pillow is done.

Cute sewing kit my kid will love

This space pillow kit is sure to please my space-loving kid. There’s a small bag of pillow stuffing, a comfy felt pillowcase, & vibrant space patches to glue on among other things (including a handheld telescope!). Overall, a basic sewing kit that I think my son will be really happy about.

We got the space pillow kit for my 5 year old and he absolutely loved the craft. Everything you need for the project was included in the kit with detailed instructions. Loved the attention to details and the quality of the product is amazing too. Definitely getting more craft kits from Pinwheel crafts.

My son loves everything about space so when he recieved his Space Pillow Kit he was so excited!!... it was so much fun and easy with the step by step instructions and the quality if the materials are amazing. This craft project was both fun and meaningful Zechariah will have his Space Pillow forever and also a beautiful memory of us bonding while crafting!. ❤️ Thank you Pinwheel Crafts for making our crafting project stress free and fun.

My son and I had loads of fun putting together this space pillow kit. Great way to get his imagination going, and he really enjoyed the telescope as well.

We recently tried the Space Pillow Kit. My daughter is at the age where she loves anything that compliments what she's learned at school, so when she pulled out the planet patches, she was excited to recite each planet as she put it on the pillow. This would make a really great educational gift or activity.

The kit is easy to assemble and comes with everything you need. Included is the pillow case, stuffing, planet patches, glue, and there was even a telescope in the kit!

My daughter couldn't wait to put it together and it was easy for her to manage the glue that came in the kit. It's also made from a soft fabric, so she's been keeping that pillow at her side!

Pinwheel Crafts created a winner with the Space Pillow Kit. It's a great opportunity for kids to learn about the solar system, fosters creativity and keeps them busy! I highly recommend it for a fun year round activity. Can't wait to buy something else from them!

Fun Pillow Kit

This is a fun solar system themed pillow kit for kids to make. My daughter had a fun time stuffing the pillow and then gluing the pieces on. Great way to get creative and a pillow is always useful if they decide to give it as a fit.

Perfect gift for my grandson

My 9 year old grandson has been wanting to sew. This is the perfect starter kit. The pillow is almost completely sewn. He will stuff it, sew it shut and glue on the patches. This is just enough for him to feel accomplished and successful. He has ADHD and has a very short attention span. The material feels very soft like a flannel. The patches are all soft and cute. The included telescope is pretty cool. He's going to love this kit.

Fun arts and crafts project for space lovers

My daughter loves space and loves arts and crafts. So this kit was perfect for her. It came with everything you need to make your own pillow, including stuffing, outer fabric, needle, thread and space themed patches and fabric glue. My 10 year old daughter was able to do it all on her own and follow the included instructions. But I would suggest any younger kids would need help from an adult. She loved making her pillow and stuffing it and sewing it up herself and adding her patches to it. And as a bonus it also came with a monocular telescope. That was a nice surprise. She took that outside and looked at the stars outside right away when she got it. I think this would make a great gift for any space lover kid.

My son was so proud of his pillow! I love finding activities that my boys not only love, but help them develop skills that are needed in the future. This pillow was perfect!

Questions parents ask

What's included in the Space Pillow Kit?

A galaxy blue pillowcase, 14 space-themed patches, a handheld telescope with a strap, case, and cleaning cloth, a needle and thread, polyfill stuffing, fabric glue, and step-by-step instructions.

Is this a sewing kit?

Yes. Kids stuff the pillowcase and then sew the opening shut with the needle and thread, using a ladder stitch shown step by step in the instructions. The patches attach with the included fabric glue, and kids who enjoy sewing can stitch them on instead.

Does it really come with a telescope?

Yes. Every kit includes a handheld telescope with a strap, a case, and a cleaning cloth, so the space fun keeps going after the pillow is finished.

What ages is it best for?

It is recommended for ages 8 and up, with adult supervision. Younger crafters can join in with a grown-up handling the needle and helping with the stitching.

Is it safe for kids?

Every Pinwheel Crafts kit is CPSIA compliant, which means it meets the US federal safety requirements for children's products. The kit contains small parts, so it is not for children under 3. The needle is sharp, so an adult should supervise the sewing step and keep the needle away from younger siblings and pets.

How do kids close the pillow?

With a ladder stitch. Kids fold the edges of the opening in, then stitch from one side to the other so the thread hides inside the seam. Every few stitches they pull the thread snug, and the instructions show each step in a diagram.

Can kids use all 14 patches?

They can use as many or as few as they like. Some kids cover the whole pillow, and others save a few patches for a backpack or jacket later.

Does it make a good gift?

Yes. It is a great pick for birthdays and holidays, especially for kids who love space, planets, and astronauts. They get a project to make, a pillow to keep, and a telescope to explore with.
