Simple Joys by Carter’s Toddler Boys’ Hat & Mitten Set

Beanies are sometimes referred to as skullcaps, watch caps or toboggans. These hats have grown in popularity over the years and work as both a fashion accessory and a clothing item to keep your child’s head warm. If you’re looking to add a beanie to your child’s wardrobe, this guide will help you narrow down your options.

The best beanies for toddler boys are constructed from high-quality materials. Look for hats made using either 100% cotton or 100% acrylic. These fabrics are not only durable but also highly breathable.

Beanies should be stretchable to provide a comfortable fit, no matter what your child’s head size. Some come with a pull-on closure to help tiny fingers put the hat on and take it off.

Go with a lightweight beanie if you’re looking to add style to your child’s outfit. These beanies can be worn in the summer, spring and fall. One that contains a soft inner lining is better for cold-weather wear. It adds warmth when skiing, ice skating or having a snowball fight with friends.

Beanies for toddler boys come in a wide range of colors and patterns. You could go with a uniquely braided knit design with a decorative faux fur pompom or a set that has a green monster, striped dinosaur or plaid buffalo pattern. Many of the beanies also feature foldable cuffs.

• Kids play in mud and often get messy, so you’ll need to know how to clean your beanies for toddler boys. Start with the beanies’ product care label. You’ll find many models are listed as “hand-wash only.” You’ll want to wash them in a sink using cold water and a gentle laundry detergent. Ring out as much water as you can and hang then hang them up to dry.
• Some sets also come with matching mittens. This is a great option if you don’t already have a pair of winter gloves.
• Beanies for toddler boys make for great presents. Add a matching coat, gloves and a scarf if you’d like to gift a full look.
• When it comes to price, you’ll find beanies for toddler boys sold in sets are typically more economical than buying an individual beanie. For example, the Durio Knitted Toddler Beanie Hats, 3-Pack, Guozyun Cotton Toddler Boys’ Beanie Hats and Simple Joys by Carter’s Toddler Boys’ Hat & Mitten Set are all significantly cheaper than the Carhartt Toddler Acrylic Watch Beanie Hat.
