Sizing Advice: How to choose the correct hat size

One fact you can be sure of - no two heads are the same! ALWAYS measure your child's head before purchasing to ensure you are getting the correct size.

Step 1: Distract the child with a toy or food

Step 2: Use a measuring tape to take measurement. Otherwise use a ribbon to take the size, then use a ruler to find the measurement.

Step 3: Purchase the size closest to your child's measurement. Our hats are very stretchy and will grow up to 4cm.

FOR EXAMPLE: The child measures 45cms, you will need the 47cm size giving plenty of future wear. It's important to get the hat closest to your head size, if it's too big the hat will block the child's vision, causing discomfort and a good chance of them pulling it off.

Brim Depth of Bucket Hats:

47cm / S: 6-12 mths: Brim Depth 6cm

50cm / M: 1-2 years: Brim Depth: 6cm

54cm / XL / 3-6 years: Brim Depth 6.5cm

I've picked the wrong size - can I return or Exchange?

Why is this hat suitable for my child with sensory issues?

We know that every child is different, and that some children with sensory issues and autism often dislike the sensation of wearing a hat on their head.

The Bedhead kids bucket hat is our number one choice for children with sensory issues. Firstly, the feel of the cotton and elastine jersey is lightweight, soft and stretchy, meaning it is not rigid like some other hats on the market.

The chin strap helps keep the hat on their head comfortably for children who try to take their hat off. However, this chin strap can be cut off with scissors if your child does not like the feel of the chin strap. Due to their stretch and sizing options, the bucket hat will continue to stay on their head without falling off.

The brim of the hat provides excellent sun protection. Due to it's anti-flop nature, it also means the hat will not flop into their eyes and obscure their vision. It also provides some privacy while helping to block out the bright sunlight from their eyes.
