pillow fights
Sleepover cushion combat
Pillow fights are playful battles in which participants hit each other with pillows.
Most common among children at sleepovers, they represent harmless roughhousing—the soft weapon ensures no real injury.
The activity has become a cultural symbol of innocent childhood fun and pajama-party mischief: The sleepover devolved into a pillow fight within minutes.
