As the foamed beads, for example, true spherical foamed beads with an average particle diameter of 1 mm (particle size distribution 0.5 mm to 6 mm) are used, which are made by foaming a synthetic resin material such as polyethylene or polystyrene. Note that the foamed beads only need to have an appropriate roundness, so they may be formed into oblong spherical shapes, or may be a combination of true spherical shapes and oblong spherical shapes.

Further, the foamed beads are incorporated in an amount of 90% by volume based on the internal volume of the cover, but the amount may be selected from the range of 40% by volume or more to 130% by volume.

The pair of baby holding belts 20 are composed of a main belt 21 and a sub belt 22 that are connected to each other, and the main belt 21 and the sub belt 22 can be fastened in a ring shape using male and female hook-and-loop fasteners.
