Tumblewing Baby Head Protection Cushion — Backpack Pillow for New Walkers
A featherweight cushion that straps on like a tiny backpack and pads the back of the head and shoulders while your toddler learns to walk — first steps, sofa climbs, kitchen-floor tumbles.
Why it's shaped this way
A new walker's centre of gravity sits high and behind them, so the first fall almost always goes backwards. The upper pad sits between the shoulder blades and the lower ring behind the head, so the cushion meets the floor before anything else does. The PP cotton fill spreads the contact across the whole ring instead of one hard point, and the open centre keeps pressure off the crown.

Please read before buying
What it is: a soft cushion for everyday indoor tumbles from standing or sitting height, light enough that most toddlers stop noticing it within minutes.
What it isn't: a helmet, or certified protective equipment of any kind. It does not cover the face, temples or forehead, and it does not replace supervision. Remove it for sleep, car seats, prams and high chairs, every time. Not suitable for children under 12 months or anyone who cannot sit and stand unaided.
Check the strap fit each time: you should slide two fingers under the chest strap easily, and nothing should sit against the throat.
