Winter hats for newborns

Among all models of winter hats for newborns, primacy is given to earflaps. This style was popular several decades ago, but even now its relevance does not fade away.

The versatility of caps with earflaps lies in the possibility of adjusting their size, achieving a perfect fit to the child's head. Now such models are created from a wide variety of materials.

Another successful model is a helmet-hat, which can also replace a scarf. These hats do not hinder the movements of the child.

Winter hats for newborns often have a large pompom. It looks very beautiful and elegant, but in this case it will be difficult to put on a hood or winter envelope for a newborn. Ears are an excellent substitute for the pompom. Such elements are not so voluminous, but no less elegant.

The first thing that attracts us in newborn hats is the outer fabric. It is better if it is natural fur or high quality wool. It is these two options that have the best thermal conductivity and ventilation.

You can now examine the lining. It must be soft and pleasant to the touch so that the child is comfortable and cozy in it. The following requirements are imposed on the lining:

• providing high-quality ventilation;
• absorption and retention of moisture;
• heat preservation.

An excellent option for creating a lining is fleece, which is actively used when sewing hats for the little ones.

The use of down as a filler is encouraged, since such products will be soft, light and very warm. But a hat with fluff must be made of a very high quality, moreover, it requires special care. Otherwise, the fluff and feathers will crawl out, the hat will lose its ability to keep warm, and the baby will be uncomfortable. Another caveat - fluff can be a source of allergies.

An excellent material for creating winter hats for newborns is polyester. It does not cause allergies, retains heat well and does not interfere with air exchange. In most models, this material is located between the upper waterproof layer and the lower soft lining.

A winter hat should not be small or large, purchased for growth. It should clearly fit the size of the baby's head. Often a light cap is worn under a winter hat, which should also be taken into account when choosing a hat. A good winter headgear covers the entire head, forehead, most of the cheeks and neck.

It is very difficult to choose a hat without trying it on, and rarely what kind of mommy manages to guess not only with the style and model, but also with the size. Therefore, it is better to go to the store with your child.

If this is not possible, then you can use the table for matching the size of the cap to the age of the child:

• if the age does not exceed 3 months, then the volume of the cap should not exceed 40 cm;
• hats with a volume of up to 42 cm are suitable for children from 3 to 6 months;
• from six months to a year, you can choose a hat with a volume of no more than 46 cm.

Each child is individual and no one can guarantee an absolute hit in this table, but still in most cases it corresponds to reality and can be taken as a basis.

Children's clothing, and even more so winter hats for newborns, must be of high quality. After all, the conversation is about the health of the child. Therefore, we immediately sweep aside the Chinese models, no matter how good, high-quality and beautiful they may seem to you. A cheap hat cannot be warm enough and high performance.

Choosing a winter hat for a newborn baby is a whole science, which has its own rules and principles. If you follow them and strictly follow them, then you can be completely sure that the chosen hat is ideal for the baby.

1. Caps with a lock are extremely practical because they fit perfectly on the head, do not slip, twist or fall off.
2. The soft lining is not a recommendation, but a prerequisite for a baby hat. There can be no internal seams or folds inside either.
3. Natural fabrics should be at the forefront.
4. Bright children's clothing is undoubtedly beautiful, but think about what chemical dyes were used to give the material such an unusual color. But the body of a newborn child is just beginning to get used to everything that surrounds him, so you should not complicate the adaptation process with new aggressive factors.
5. Abundant decor is also useless on a children's headdress. A few elements will be quite enough, an excess of strings, straps and elastic bands will interfere with the child and distract from the walk.
6. The purchase of a hat should be carried out only with a fitting. In the absence of such an opportunity, it is imperative to measure the circumference of the head and write down the numbers obtained. It is impossible to buy a hat one size larger or smaller, since it will slide out over your eyes or let the cold pass and squeeze your head.
7. Newborns need to cover their cheeks, forehead and neck up to the first vertebra. Many manufacturers additionally insulate their products at the place where the fontanel is located.
