My kids love these sun hats, and wear them daily. They are the only one I bother to buy! I have used the size Small from 18months-5Yo, before switching to Medium and they have lasted through several children with lots of life left in them. These are GREAT play hats!

This was a gift for my nephew, who absolutely loves dinosaurs. He'll be getting the hat this coming week. I liked the look of the hat just fine, but the jury is still out on how much he'll like it. He's 5 and lives across the street from a park, so I'm sure it will get lots of use.

These hats are absolutely adorable. Perfect sun hats for beach, swimming pool, out in the yard. Just perfect!

Not only did I love it, my grandson loves to strut around it. Makes it much easier to protect him from the sun

So cute and keeps the sun off my daughter's face!

The only sun hat my 1.5 year old will actually keep on! The adjustable straps keep it secure, even during windy boat rides, and give her plenty of room to grow. It’s cute, well made, and provides great sun protection without the fuss (literally!). Definitely recommend for toddlers or kids who are picky about wearing hats.
