the sun out of the baby’s eyes and also off the skin. Many new born hats come
with the strap that attaches under the chin, which can be helpful in keeping the
hat on your baby’s head but keep watch on the strap as your baby moves and
see to it that it is not tight on the neck of the baby.

summer. The main intention is to beat the heat with loose cotton clothes so that
