Hat for children, an essential accessory.

If someone asked a mother for a word to associate with child and winter, certainly a very high percentage would answer: hat!

Mothers have a fixed hat and every occasion is good to put one on for our children: in winter to protect it from the cold to shelter it from the sun , in autumn and spring to protect it from gusts of wind, if possible, we would also put it on. night to protect it from the humidity of the house.

With the arrival of cold temperatures, parents are afraid to leave their children in the open air, because they fear for their health. In reality, if well covered and taken out in the middle of the day, they have less chance of being exposed to infectious agents than they have if they remain in poorly ventilated places for a long time. Never forget a hat, a scarf and gloves if the temperatures are low.

But in addition to being a useful accessory to safeguard the health of our little ones, the children's hat can become a real fashion accessory, trendy and often also nice.

Saying hat is really very generic, because there are hundreds of different models.
