This is how a pillow case triggered a surprisingly deep discussion between a four-year-old boy and his mom Let me begin by clarifying. Im not the mother or the four-year-old but rather the uncle who gifted his favorite nephew a brand-new pillow and pillowcase. The pillow and case that would cause this deep exchange of ideas were The Mini-King childrens pillow and matching Mini-King pillowcase. I got them one evening on a whim while doing a little shopping on Amazon. My prime subscription affords me complimentary shipping and the luxury of totally avoiding all malls for well over two years. That is a win-win for everyone, including my little nephew who now had a package heading his way. A few days later, I got a thank you call from my sibling stating the pillow and cases showed up and are a big hit. She then went on to tell me about an e-book that was included with the pillowcases. I forgot that the cases include a bedtime story featuring the pillow character whos smiling face is printed on the corner of each case. It turns out this cute little story of a pillow that gets dirty and put into the washing machine promoted a deep discussion about right, wrong and the subtle art of parenting. This unfolded that night in Jasons bed room as my sister shared the downloaded picture book with him. Early in the story, the boy and his friend "the pillow" are in the backyard playing. This caused an extremely definitive "he is being naughty" from my nephew. When asked, who is being naughty? Jason explained to his mother that the little boy was naughty since he took his pillow outside, and it will get all dirty. I was already rolling with laughter at this extremely serious evaluation when my sis said, "wait, there is more." As the story advances the pillow character gets increasingly more dirty, which prompts a very concerned "he is gonna get sick from the germs". Asking for clarification my sister finds out that the little kid in the story is now risking illness by associating with the dirtied pillow. This begins a quick conversation on germs and how some can cause people to get sick. Jason, satisfied that the boy is probably not in any significant danger, allows his mommy to continue. The story concludes with the appropriate bed-time story happy ending. Leading Jason to conclude that the kid wasnt really naughty after all because his mother let him take his pillow outside. Then closing with a hilarious exchange based upon this 4 year olds view of appropriate parenting. Jason still believes the story mommy was too lenient. As expected by their outstanding reviews, the pillow and pillowcase are loved for their softness and happy colors. Unexpected was the impact of the included e-book bed time story "The Mini-Kings. Big Surprise". Though my sister and I both had a good laugh about it afterwards. She truly enjoyed the story time and discussion that such a simple little tale produced.
