I think 2020 will go down in history for many reasons. With the recent covid-19 pandemic, my child hasn’t been able to play soccer, basketball or baseball. He loves all of his team sports.

Thankfully, he has been able to play golf at our local course. Its a great individual sport that that they can grow, be athletic and be outside with their peers. I’ve also learned there is a lot of equipment sized perfectly for the younger beginner golfers. Clubs that are lighter, easier to swing and color coded for their height. The US Kids Golf does a great job of fitting kids for golf clubs.

There are even training products designed to help improve your swing. For example, the orange whip golf  swing trainer. A long stick that resembles a golf club but has a weighted orange ball at the end of it. This “golf swing trainer” helps  to  improve range of motion in ones swing, balance, and flexibility. All important aspects of an optimal golf swing. I had tested this orange whip out at a golf clinic myself a few years back. Then a friend sent a link for the junior version: a flexible shaft, a smaller diameter grip and lighter weights on each end- perfect for my junior beginner golfer to improve his swing.

Just like the orange whip golf swing trainer, my kids have a smaller baseball glove, smaller golf clubs – generally smaller kid versions to help them play optimally. Makes sense.

Well Arc4life has kids pillows. Why? Because kids have smaller spines, smaller curves in their neck and need pillows that are proportionally smaller. For instance, my son a contoured neck pillow for sleeping every night- the arc4life cervical traction pillow (its comes in a small, medium and large. The small pillow is smaller in length, width and thickness: 20×15 vs the medium size which is 24×17. There is a big difference in all the dimensions of the pillow. It is ergonomically designed for the size of his little neck and gives him the support he needs for great posture while he sleeps (on his back or on his side). If children use adult pillows that are too large, the pillows can cause forward head posture,  pushing their head and neck forward. My son loves his pillow so much that if he goes for a sleepover at his grandparents, we pack his pillow with him as well: It’s essential.

Also, you can get kids pillows for neck support in the car and for travel as well. Here is an example of a twist pillow made of memory foam that can be used for kids while they are in the car.
