Baby Hats

Cute and stylish baby hats for all seasons

Baby hats are practical must-have items whatever the season, that provide vital protection for your baby, whether it's to shade delicate heads from the sun or to keep winter babies warm and snug.

Newborns are unable to regulate their own body temperature until they reach the age of approximately 2 years old. So in the winter month, a hat is an important accessory to prevent your newborn from too much heat loss.

From a hand knitted baby pixie bonnet, to a beanie hat with matching socks and mittens, winter hat sets for infants are irresistible. Whether you prefer a design with a pom pom, earmuffs, crochet or animal ears you will find something to suit your taste.

Check out specialised photography prop hats and outfits too; bunny ears, mermaids, ladybirds, tigers and flower fairies are just some of the knitted options available for creating beautiful baby photos to show off to family and friends.

Just as it's important to keep your baby warm in the winter, it is vital to protect them from direct sunlight in the summer. Keep babies in the shade wherever possible, use a high-quality sunscreen and a sun canopy on your buggy or stroller. But a sun hat is also a must-have baby accessory for preventing sunburn and helping to keep your baby cool.

Bucket hats and legionnaire hats are among the best choices for toddlers on the move as they have an overhang that protects the face and neck from the sun as well as the top of the head.

For baby girls, this selection can also include a wide rimmed baby bonnet that ties securely under the chin. For babies and toddlers sat in a stroller, a peaked cap is a great choice; the peak provides shade for the face whilst the close fitting back prevents it from slipping as they move their heads around.
