Teaching children to wear hats can be a trying time for parents. Bedhead makes this life skill easier to learn. With hats small enough to fit newborns from the day they leave hospital, it is never too early to start. Familiarising a baby with the sensation of wearing a hat, especially with a brim is the key to raising a toddler that searches for their hat to wear before going outdoors.

All Bedhead Bucket hat, Baby Bucket hat & Legionnaire styles have achieved a rating of UPF50+ Excellent Protection

Which Bedhead Hat is Right for My Child? 👒🌞

Bedhead Hats are trusted by Aussie parents for sun-smart protection and all-day comfort. Both styles are UPF50+ rated, tested to Australian & New Zealand standards, and made from soft, stretchy cotton jersey that kids actually enjoy wearing.

✨ Our Tip

• Choose Bucket if you want a classic all-rounder that works for toddlers, prams, and childcare.

• Choose Legionnaire if your child is a newborn, crawler, or hat-hater who needs extra neck/ear protection and a hat that stays put.

Either way, you’ll get a comfortable, sun-smart hat that your child will actually want to wear! 🌞💖
