US 6,267,638 B1 · Pillow case with pocket for child's article

Abstract

The present pillow case is comprised of a tubular bag with a closed end and an open end. The bag has a predetermined length such that, when a conventional pillow of a predetermined size is fully inserted into the bag against the closed end, a loose extension is provided on the side of the open end. A flat pocket for holding a child's article is attached to the bag near the open end at a position substantially overlapping an adjacent end of the pillow. An opening on the pocket is angled sharply toward the closed end to more directly present the article to the child, and to hold the article more securely. The positioning of the pocket overlapping the edge of the pillow causes it to be raised by the pillow to about the top plane of the pillow case, and thus places the article within sight of the child for providing enjoyment and companionship.
