Kids' duvet fillings, pillows and protectors
Kids' duvet fillings help complete a child's bed with the right level of warmth and a suitable fit. Explore children's pillows, kids' mattress protectors and other bedding pieces designed for different sleeping arrangements and everyday care.
Comfort and fit for children's beds
What is the best kids' duvet?
Choosing kids' duvet fillings starts with room temperature, the child's age and the size of the bed. Consider the tog rating, the weight of the filling and the care instructions. A lighter option may suit a warmer bedroom, while additional warmth may be needed in colder months. Check that the duvet fits its cover and avoid duvets for babies under 12 months.
What's the difference between microfibre and hollowfibre synthetic fillings?
Microfibre uses very fine synthetic fibres for a soft, smooth feel; hollowfibre has a hollow structure that can give the filling more loft. Both are used in kids' duvet fillings, although their weight and care requirements vary by product. Zara Home offers bedding options to consider alongside children's pillows and cot bed duvet covers for a coordinated bed. Always check the individual composition and washing label.
Are waterproof mattress protectors breathable?
Some kids' mattress protectors combine a water-resistant barrier with a breathable upper fabric, but performance depends on the materials and construction. Check the product description for breathability, the type of backing and washing guidance. For everyday use, kids' mattress protectors should also sit securely on the mattress without bunching. Choose the correct dimensions and a surface that feels comfortable beneath the fitted sheet.
What size duvet do I need for a cot bed?
Measure the mattress and check the duvet cover dimensions before choosing an insert: cot, cot bed and junior bed sizes are not always interchangeable. Kids' duvet sizes differ between ranges, so refer to the measurements listed for each item at Zara Home. For children over 12 months, select an age-appropriate option and follow safe-sleep guidance. Matching children's bedding with suitable children's pillows can help complete an older child's bed."
