Should Your Child Wear a Hat?

Keeping in mind that many schools today forbid the wearing of hats, while they’re off school grounds it's a good idea for kids to wear hats. Obviously, in cold weather, hats can help your child stay warm. Approximately one third of your body's heat can escape out the top of your head, so trapping that heat keeps your child toasty and better protected against the cold.

But what about when the weather isn't cold? Harmful UV rays from the sun can be partially guarded against by the right kind of headwear. If the weather is hot, a breathable hat is recommended. Protect your child's eyes, face, head, and neck from the beating sun with a hat.

Boys as well as girls, if they sport long hair, may like to tuck their hair up into their hat to get it out of their way. Girls or boys may choose to pull a ponytail through the opening at the back of the hat.

Hats and Baseball

Made from straw, the first baseball caps were worn in 1849, on April 24. The Knickerbockers, from New York, first sported this headwear. Soon enough, however, fine merino wool would be used to construct what would one day become known as baseball caps. They would feature a bill or visor to help protect the players eyes.

Today, there are fitted caps and adjustable caps. Some adjustable caps come with a mesh back to promote breathability. These hats are perfect for summer.
