Hats, Hats, Hats!!

Since sun protection is so important for kids with Albinism, Frankie has quite a collection of hats!! Baseball caps, bucket hats, flap hats, visors . . . we love hats! Baseball caps are great and you can get kids size ones in your favorite team, but make sure sunblock is applied to the back of the neck. Bucket hats supply more shade all around the child's head. Flap hats are great because they cover the whole back of the neck and sides too! They come in many beach themes. Visors tend to have a big brim, but again be aware of the back of the neck.
I really like the flap hats at Rugged Bear, they are called Flap Happy. Baby Banz has great flap hats, and One Step Ahead, as well.
Hats just become part of the wardrobe! I think they are great for sun protection for all. My daughter wears a lot of hats also. Let me know other places that you buy hats!
