Why should your child wear a sun hat? And why choose a muslin one from T-TOMI?

Sunshine, laughter, summer and children's fun. Everything seems idyllic—until you realize that the sun is pleasant, but also deceptive. A child's skin and little head are extremely sensitive to direct sunlight. That's why hats in summer are not just an adorable fashion accessory, but above all a necessary protection.
And among the best on the market today, muslin hats by T‑TOMI clearly shine—smart, beautiful, breathable and customizable.
Why must a hat be part of every summer? And what happens when a child doesn’t wear one?
A child’s head isn’t just cute—it’s also extraordinarily sensitive and vulnerable. Without a hat, you're literally exposing your child to the risk of unpleasant—or even dangerous—consequences.
What can happen if a child doesn't wear a hat:
-
Heatstroke & overheating – the child may get too hot, become lethargic, restless or even vomit.
-
Sunburn – the scalp, forehead, ears – all the places that burn first.
-
Dehydration – overheating leads to fluid loss, which is extremely risky for young children.
-
Irritability & fatigue – direct sun tires them, making children cranky and tearful.
-
Increased risk of collapse – especially for babies or toddlers who can't cool themselves.
And now imagine all that could be prevented with just one piece of fabric…
Why a hat should be part of every summer day:
-
Protects from UV radiation and overheating
-
Prevents burning of the delicate skin of scalp and face
-
Helps keep the child comfortable even on hot days
-
Provides safety and comfort during any outdoor activity
-
The hat is small, light, packable—but its benefit is HUGE.
Why should your child wear a hat? And why specifically a muslin one from T‑TOMI?
Sunshine, laughter, summer and children's joy. Everything feels idyllic—until you realize that the sun’s beauty can also betray. A child's skin and head are extremely sensitive to direct sunlight. That’s why summer hats are a must—not just cute, but essential.
Among the very best, T‑TOMI's muslin hats clearly stand out—smart, beautiful, breathable and custom-fit.
Why no summer without a hat?
Children’s skin is many times thinner than adults’, so they burn faster, more easily and more painfully. In addition, they can’t yet efficiently regulate body temperature—so overheating their heads can be very dangerous.
Without protection you risk:
-
Heatstroke and overheating
-
Sunburn on scalp, forehead, ears
-
Eye irritation
-
Drowsiness, vomiting or collapse
All of which can be avoided by a simple piece of carefully designed fabric—a hat.
Why the muslin T‑TOMI hat?
-
Breathable material
Muslin is literally a summer miracle. T‑TOMI uses a double layer of 100% cotton muslin that is ultra‑light, soft and breathable. The hat is:
-
not scratchy
-
not hot to wear
-
yet still blocks the sun effectively
-
Adjustable size with a drawstring
This is where T‑TOMI shines! No more “one size fits all” hoping it fits. The hats have a clever drawstring around the edge so you can fine‑tune the size exactly to your child's head. That means:
-
the hat stays securely in place
-
doesn’t roll, fall or twist
-
and remains comfortable even during long wear
-
Chin strap tie
The hats also have classic ties under the chin, so they:
-
withstand wind
-
stay on even when the child tries to remove them
-
and stay put during active play
-
A Czech brand parents trust
T‑TOMI is a favorite among moms and dads—a brand that combines functionality, safety, style and eco‑consciousness. All with attention to detail and the real needs of babies and toddlers.
What happens if the hat is missing?
You might say: “It’s just a bit cloudy” or “We’re only outside for a short while”… But UV rays pass through clouds, and small children burn much faster than adults. Plus they often can’t say when they’re hot or have a headache.
Without protection:
-
The risk of heatstroke increases
-
Skin burning may occur
-
The child becomes cranky, tearful or may even vomit
And that’s no bargain for a few hours outdoors.
Summary? Style, comfort, and safety in one.
T‑TOMI muslin hats:
-
protect against sun and overheating
-
are ultra‑light and breathable
-
come with adjustable head circumference
-
stay put even during active play
-
look gorgeous—with stylish prints and soft pastel colors
TIP: A hat is a summer must‑have
An ideal gift for a baby or toddler that won’t end up unused. For vacations, the garden, stroller, beach… Every parent who tries a T‑TOMI hat once won’t want another.
