THE RAINBOW - A WONDER OF NATURE and a COLORFUL DREAM
It hides behind the rain clouds and hops towards the sun, enjoying the warm rays. Then suddenly it is there in all its glory: the RAINBOW! It unites opposites - sun and rain - and connects them. And it builds a bridge between heaven and earth.
Even if we have seen many of them in our lives, rainbows never lose their magic! They captivate, make children‘s eyes light up, stand for hope and simply put you in a good mood at all times.
Rainbows stand for diversity, tolerance and openness. Who wouldn‘t want to bring these values into their children‘s room?
This pillow with bright colors of the rainbow in combination with the fluffy clouds offer not only an eye-catcher, but also a cuddly hug. The cuddly soft clouds are like little cuddly friends that will delight your child. They are not only decorative, but also a cozy, woolly sensory experience.
