Essential Sun Protection for Delicate Baby Skin
Your baby’s skin is soft and sensitive, so it is extra vulnerable on swims and sunny beach days, or even during a quick trip to the park.
That’s why baby sunhats and related accessories should be viewed as an essential part of keeping your little one(s) safe.
Why Babies Need Special UV Protection
Unlike adults, babies have thinner skin that can burn very quickly if exposed to the sun for a prolonged period.
However, wearing a UPF-50 sun hat helps to block harmful rays and, therefore, better protects children when they play outdoors.
Safety Features in Quality Baby Sun Hats
When it comes to choosing baby hats, safety is vitally important. A well-designed sun hat must protect your little one while also keeping them comfortable on warm days.
Secure Chin Straps and Gentle Materials
Quality sun hats are designed with secure chin straps that keep the hat in place, even on breezy days in the park or beach.
They also feature soft, gentle materials that ensure there’s no irritation, which makes the hat very safe for newborns and toddlers.
Breathable Fabrics for Sensitive Skin
Babies have delicate skin that needs fabrics that allow for airflow.
That is why it is a good idea to put them in hats made of breathable cotton and lightweight blends that help prevent them from overheating.
This ensures your child can enjoy the outdoors while benefitting from UPF 50 sun protection.
From Newborn to Toddler: Finding the Right Fit
Every baby grows at their own pace, so choosing the right sun hat size is essential.
With a wide collection of styles, from bucket hats to flap designs, there’s a perfect option for every stage.
Newborn (0–6 months)
For the tiniest heads, XS baby hats are made to fit snugly without slipping. A newborn sun hat should be lightweight, soft, and crafted from breathable fabrics.
That is because these early months are when skin is most delicate, which is why UPF 50 sun protection is vital.
Infant to Toddler Transition (6–24 months)
As babies grow, they need hats that adapt accordingly. Thankfully, our range of baby hats has adjustable features and a wider range of sizes to help parents find the right fit.
Signs Your Baby Has Outgrown Their Hat
A well-made sun hat will better protect your baby boys or girls throughout their early years.
If the hat leaves marks, feels tight, or slips off easily, it’s time to check the next size.
