Why some kids are born with a shock of hair and others completely bald, I have never understood. I am so jealous of parents whose kids have flowing locks at 8 months instead of my little girl who is as bald as Yul Brenner.

The one advantage is that most bald kids really look cute in hats. This is a blessing as in our cold European winters, headgear is a necessity not an accessory.

I recently got this super-cute little Monster hat for my little girl from the Papou shop on Etsy. It is a perfect little hat for her. My little monster looks as cute as a button with her hat on and she cannot pull it off her head, as it ties neatly around it.

The hats are each made by hand and exist in different sizes and colours. You just need to send an email to Papou with the colour and size you would like. Give it 2 weeks and voila – a hat will be ready for you, especially made to keep your little one’s head toasty.
