FUNKY CHILDREN'S EYE PILLOWS

£10 each plus £2.50 post and packaging

In a Yoga Bananas class we always use lavender eye pillows at the end of the session. These are absolutely loved by the children.

Handmade in vintage fabrics exclusively for Yoga Bananas by Naomi Purkiss. These masks are filled with a mixture of fresh French lavender and lavender oil-infused rice, the ratio of the filling is 40-60 (60% infused rice to give a good weight on the eyes). They look wonderful too so they make great presents for children of all ages and will not only aid in relaxation but also aid in sleep!

We (my school) have purchased 10 funky lavender eye pillows made in fab funky kid's fabrics by Vicky’s friend Naomi Purkiss. They are amazing and beautifully made. I can’t recommend them highly enough. As a primary art teacher I am now using these pillows for relaxation at the end of my art classes and yoga classes. Children know what they need and that is relaxation! Infants and juniors are really enjoying using these pillows. My teacher colleagues also want to follow suit and use the pillows in their regular classes so I can see we are going to be ordering more! Thank you so much Vicky and Naomi for your inspiration.
