A correctly selected hat is very important for the health of the child, because it protects his most vulnerable parts of the body.
But at the same time, the children's hat should meet aesthetic requirements, shaping the taste of the baby from an early age. In this regard, children's hats with a pompom look charming.
Models
A hat with an original pompom is suitable for a child of any age and gender. In addition, the funny soft balls that kids love so much fit perfectly in both winter and autumn-spring wardrobe.
This bright decorative element is most often the main accent of the headgear - additional decoration (embroidery, voluminous appliqués, embossed knitting pattern) is optional. However, on girlish models small decorative elements are allowed - beads, rhinestones, appliques in the form of elegant flowers or bows. On hats for boys, sometimes there is decor in the form of embroidery - usually technical topics (cars, airplanes, tanks) or cartoon male characters.
There are also original versions of children's hats with a pompom. For example, models depicting glasses on the forehead or containing a funny inscription. Some products are made in the form of the head of a knight or popular minions - pompons in such hats imitate a tuft of hair.
A children's hat with a pompom, together with outerwear, should first of all protect the child from the vagaries of the weather. And the style of the headdress directly depends on what kind of a child’s jacket or overalls.
If the baby’s outerwear is equipped with a high collar, then you can buy a hat with earflaps (option for winter).
In principle, any headdress is suitable for a jacket with a warm hood and additional inserts covering the head, including a regular hat with ties under the chin (knitted or warmer fur).
If the jumpsuit or jacket has a wide neck that needs to be covered with a scarf, it is advisable to choose a model that will cover the baby's throat and neck as much as possible. The cap-pipe and helmet styles fully meet this requirement, which successfully replace the scarf and do not slip at the same time. In addition, these styles completely cover the ears and forehead of the child - its vulnerabilities.
Pompom Options
Children's hats with a pompom are found in various versions. Models for boys are usually equipped with only one volumetric ball, in girls there may be several.
Sew on this part, usually on the top of the headgear - in this case, the pompom is large, which looks touching. If there are two of them, which causes associations with fluffy animal ears, then they have a smaller diameter and are mounted symmetrically on the sides of the product.
Fur pompons look original. Usually, lush, natural fox, fox or raccoon fur is used for these purposes.
In addition, fur pom-poms often adorn headband ties. As a rule, this applies to models for girls.
Material
Pompons can be made of the same material as the children's hat - knitted, fleece, knitted. In this case, so that the image does not seem rustic, you need to choose a ball in a contrasting color or decorated with a print. The advantage of such models is that they are easy to care for.
Fluffy fur pompons are more interesting. It can be both natural and artificial fur. For the first option, as a rule, it uses lush fur of valuable breeds - fox, raccoon or arctic fox. It is clear that such a finish will affect the cost. However, high-quality synthetic fur also looks attractive, it is easy to confuse it with a natural analogue.
Color
Pompons on children's hats can match the tone of the entire product, but sometimes it looks a little boring, so fluffy balls are more often highlighted in contrasting colors.
Similar hats for girls usually have a color scheme consisting of pink, red, yellow, white, beige shades in their various combinations.
Options for boys are more restrained in color terms. In hats with pompons, blue, gray, green shades prevail. Classic black is less common - it is more suitable for adult models. However, if all the boy’s clothes are stylized as an adult version, then a black cap is quite acceptable.
How to choose?
When buying a fashionable hat with a pompom for your child, consider a number of important points.
First of all, the product should be made of natural material and high-quality insulation (if it is a winter model). The material must allow air and moisture to pass through while retaining heat. Pay attention to the lining - it should be soft and pleasant to the body.
It is important to check the treatment of the seams - if they are performed poorly, they can rub delicate skin.
If the cap with the pompom is equipped with ties, they also need to be carefully considered: they must be long enough, strong and elastic so as not to tear at the most unexpected moment and not cut into the baby’s skin.
The child should definitely measure the product: after all, it can crawl over your eyes, twist when it moves. It is important that the cap reliably covers the ear region, where the lymph nodes that cannot be caught are cold.
Keep in mind that a hat with a large pompom is unlikely to wear a hood. In this regard, if this is a hat for winter, then it should be warm enough, because in this case you should not count on additional insulation in the form of a hood.
The pompons themselves need to be checked for strength - it is undesirable for them to fall off after the first wash.
When buying caps, consider the rhythm of your child’s life. If he attends kindergarten, the option with the ties is undesirable - the baby himself is unlikely to cope with them. It is preferable to choose a model with a fastener or in the form of a helmet.
If you buy a winter hat with a lining, then it will not stretch anymore, so determine your size correctly.
In general, you won’t be able to fully verify such an indicator as the comfort of a hat, even if you buy it with your child. You can finally evaluate the comfort of a model only in the process of wearing.
