For all these years, kids of all ages have been throwing the pillows in the middle and jumping on them from all sides. One granddaughter likes to climb on the back of the sofa in the living room and jumps from there. Normally the pillows are at the back of the built-in seating, with the fire(place) at eye level. sandino_814 posted a photo:
