I bought this hat for my 6-month-old. I had an older version i-play hat for my newborn and loved it because it fit so well. I thought this one would be the same, but it is not. Firstly, instead of the elastic band that cinches the back of the hat, there is a draw sting with a plastic piece to hold the string once it's pulled. The plastic piece is perfectly at the back of the hat which means when I have my baby in the Bjorn, it hits me in the chest, and that hurts. It can't be comfortable for the baby either. There are enough complaints about the poorly positioned chin strap in other reviews that it's not necessary for me to go into detail about that issue, but it is indeed a problem, especially since the hat is loose--it doesn't cinch well--and so tends to get crooked on my baby's face or fall into her eyes within minutes of putting it on. I will not be buying this model ever again and instead will look for something else entirely when she grows out of this one (which I hope is soon).

I've had a hard time finding a sun hat online for my infant son and finally settled on this one. This hat (0-6mths) is big for my son and he has a big head for 2mths! I have to tie the velcro ties instead of press them (too much room left for baby's head). No way a newborn could ever wear this. The color came as described: light blue. It's lightweight and non-stuffy; perfect for warm/hot weather. Lots of coverage too-- front and back which is wonderful! I plan to keep this and will continue to use till his head grows into it (also buying addtl. hats that will fit better for now as well).

I bought this sun hat for my 11 month old and it fits great plus its excellent sun coverage for face, neck and ears. Didn't use the velcro for the face (it was too small). My son didn't try to take it off so its comfortable.

The hat is correctly sized, and has a pull tab to change the size of the head (I purchased the 6 - 18 mo size)

and it fits my 9 mo babies really well tho one had a head circ in the 90 + percentile. The

big con, is that a tie cord may be better for the chin -- the velcro does not stay in place and is

at a weird angle too -- ending up on their nose since i can't tighten it enough. i just don't use the strap,

and they keep the hat on while they have fun things to do like splash in the pool.

Protection from the sun is excellent, and hat is a nice lightweight material. The only problem is the chin strap is placed too far forward and doesn't stay in place.

This is a nice cap and worked well for our 2.5 month old while we visited Grand Canyon and Vegas in peak August summer. The cap is good but the clip at the back which is used to tighten the cap sits right behind the babys head. So if you have a baby who cannot raise his head yet or sits in an inclined position on the car seat most of the day then the clip right at the back of the head can be an issue. Otherwise it is a great cap for a good price.

My son is 9 months old and recently went to the beach in sunny Brazil. Between sand and waves, the hat stuck along with him during the whole day! I am glad I bought it.

this is the only hat that will stay on my 1 year old's head for longer than 5 seconds. you can adjust the size around the head quite a lot, plus the chin strap is long and sturdy. she tried to pull it off, but couldn't very easily and so gave up trying and forgot about it being on her head most of the time.

The 0-6 month size is way too big for my 7 week old, but it still does the trick if adjusted and tied right. I love the fact that it has a very wide/long visor part (fabric not stiff) and the long extended fabric in the back to shield her neck. A very nice baby sun hat.

Great hat. Offers great coverage for my 6 month old.Material is nice and soft and it washes well , did not shrink.

It also stays on his head with the tie is and its adjustable. I think it will probably fit him until he is at least 3 cause it has room to grow into.
