Kids bucket hat, 0 to 5

Mornings at the playground sandbox mean bright skies and sudden gusts across the swings. We sew this light cotton bucket with a soft brim that circles the brow, casting steady shade over little eyes. A buckle cord under the chin keeps the hat from flying across the lawn when the breeze picks up.

Soft cotton weave

Lightweight cotton breathes easily on humid playground mornings. The cloth absorbs damp sweat during sandbox play and softens more each time you wash it.

Sage and gray cloth

We paired a muted sage green crown with pebble gray trim that hides playground dirt well. It matches pale t-shirts and bright swim shorts alike.

Stay put chin strap

A thin under-chin cord secures with an easy slide buckle. When a stroller nap turns windy or little hands tug at the brim, the hat stays right on the head.

Crown cinch buckle

The back of the crown adjusts with a small elastic buckle toggle. You can snug the fit as your toddler grows, keeping the brim level above their eyebrows.
