An insulated hollow cushion has a neck strap (30), an interior portion (72) sufficiently large to accommodate a portable heating source and/or hot and cold foods (74, 76), two side slits through which hands can be inserted for warmth, sealable flaps (16, 20) for closing the side slits when insulation is desired, a slit (36) at the top of the cushion for insertion of items into the cushion\s interior, a closeable top flap (28) to seal the top opening for insulation purposes, and a closeable top small flap (56) to insulate the gap between a user\s ankles when such user\s feet are inserted through the top slit. The side flaps can be insulated so that they can be tucked into the side openings to narrow these openings to provide a tight seal when small hands are inserted into these openings. The insulating layer within the front (10) or the back panel can have multiple perforations (92) over an area thereof and this area can be covered, uncovered, or partially covered by a releasably closable flap (84), thereby to provide a “heat window”which allows maximum transmission of heat (or cold) from an internal hot (or cold) source, or partial transmission, or no more transmission than would occur through an intact insulated wall.

An insulating seat cushion which can also provide an insulating container or insulate a human user\s hands or feet, comprising, in combination: front and back panels, each of which has top, bottom and two side edges, each panel having inner and outer opposing major surfaces, said panels being positioned in an overlying, face-to-face relationship such that their inner surfaces face each other, each of said panels being made of insulating material, said panels being permanently joined directly together at their bottom edges and their respective corresponding side edges, including the top of each side edge and along the length of said corresponding side edges, except for a pair of side openings, such that when nothing is positioned between said front and back panels, (a) said inner surfaces of said front and back panels will be in contact with each other, (b) said inner surfaces will lie parallel to each other, and (c) said entire panels, including said outer surfaces thereof, will be parallel to each other, whereby said device with said opposing and parallel outer surfaces can be usable as a cushion, said front and back panels being large enough so that said device can contain the hands or feet of a user, or cover the seat area of such user, each of said side openings being spaced from the top of its side edge and being shorter than its respective side edge, but wide enough to accommodate the passage of a hand therethrough so that said hand can be posititioned between said inner surfaces of said panels, a pair of closure flaps for repeatably closing and opening said respective side openings, each of said closure flaps having one end which is attached to the exterior of one side of said cushion and being arranged so that a user\s hand can be inserted into said side opening and remain in said cushion without contacting a closure flap, each of said closure flaps having a height which is less than the height of its respective side edge, the exterior of the other side of said cushion and an opposite end of each closure flap containing means for temporarily attaching said opposite end of each closure flap to the exterior of said other side of said cushion, said cushion having a relatively large top opening which extends substantially across the entire width of the top portion of said cushion from side edge to side edge, and means for repeatably closing the opening said relatively large top opening, whereby said cushion can alternatively be used as a hand warmer by inserting one\s hands through said side openings with said top opening closed, a foot warmer by inserting one\s feet through said top opening with said side openings closed, as a seat cushion by closing both said top and said side openings, and as an insulated container by placing hot or cold objects therein.
