Sunny Side Up - Little Hats


I don't think anyone would argue that there is anything cuter than a toddler running around in the backyard during summer under the sprinkler in their swimsuit/underwear/diaper/bare butt! That joyous laughter and love of something so simple is just precious.

But nothing is worse that sunburn on that perfect skin either - so with summer approaching its time to be armed with the sunscreen and the perfect summer hat for your little one's. In Australia we have a song that I remember from when I was a little girl that they still use today "SLIP SLOP SLAP"

It went something like this:

Slip, slop, slap

SLIP on a shirt
SLOP on sunscreen and
SLAP on a hat

Slip, slop, slap
In the midday summer sun

Slip, slop slap!

I am sure my Aussie compatriots and reading this and have the tunes in their heads as they read those words.

I was so excited when Oobi Baby bought out an adorable range of hats for this summer. They have full brims and a toggle cord which fits under the chin to keep the hat on as they run around and play. Best of all - they are a sturdy cotton and you can throw them in the wash.


So protect those perfect little faces. Available at wonderful children's boutiques across the country including www.cute-ture.com
