In the winter season, the ears are the most vulnerable part of the baby's body. Unprotected ears can lead to permanent and frequent illnesses. To avoid such a nuisance, you need to be very careful and responsible when choosing a children's winter hat.
Instructions
Step 1
Pay attention to the inside of the baby's hat, which is in contact with the baby's delicate skin, it must be made of natural materials. Give preference to cotton, as the wool will prick and irritate the baby's skin. Look at the seams, they shouldn't touch your head.
Step 2
If you want to buy a fur model, look for a fabric insert made of natural material, with the addition of synthetic thread, this makes the hat more durable. The fur should be soft so as not to chafe the baby's skin.
Step 3
Choose a children's winter hat by size, it should not be tight or large. To do this, measure the circumference of your child's head if you do not have the opportunity to take him for a try-on. Or use approximate standards for the ratio of child's age to head circumference: 3 months / 35-40 cm, 3-6 months / 42-44 cm, 6-12 months / 44-46 cm, 1-2 years / 46 -48 cm, 2-3 years / 48-50 cm, 3-5 years / 50-54 cm, 5-8 years / 52-56 cm.
Step 4
Make sure the hat has adjustable ties and fasteners to fit snugly on your baby's head.
Step 5
Be sure to make sure your child is not allergic to the material the hat is made of.
Step 6
Remember that the model, fabric, cut and even the size of a children's winter hat are determined by the conditions of use. This means that, just like hypothermia, overheating is undesirable. If in severe frost a child is motionless for a long time, which is extremely undesirable, his head should be insulated as reliably as possible, but here it is important not to overdo it with insulation. Give preference to a hat that has a cotton lining, it has good heat regulation.
Step 7
As for the model of a children's winter hat, it all depends on your taste and desire. A practical option is a hat-helmet that reliably covers the ears, head and neck of the baby.
