Before the birth of a baby, a mother will put much thought into the clothing it will need. A beanie is one of the items that needs to be bought as the head of a newly born baby is particularly vulnerable. Newborn beanies must be as soft and comfortable as possible and fortunately there are many such items available today from baby stores and online retailers that are not only soft and warm but really attractive too.
The head of a newly born baby is vulnerable to heat and cold as it cannot regulate temperature properly yet. The material chosen has to not only provide protection and be comfortable but air circulation is important too. This is why many mothers opt for natural materials.
The shape of a beanie is another advantage. The roundness, flexibility and stretchiness all combine to offer a gentle fit. The fact that it covers the little ears too helps and some are even made with a visor helping with protection against the sun. In hot weather, one made of a loose crocheted weave is more suitable. The tightness of a knit offers more protection against the cold.
A rainbow of different colors are available. Mothers can select from single colors and patterns of all kinds using different colors. They can choose a color according to the gender of the baby but there are also many neutral options too. Fortunately these items are not too costly and this means that most mothers have items in various colors to go with certain outfits.
For special events like a christening or the first photo shoot a really special beanie can be selected. For example, a white one with a huge pink flower will make a baby girl look adorable for her very first photo shoot. Many of the better quality items are hand crafted using age-old techniques. Although the techniques used may have been around for centuries, the styles, patterns, colors and accessories chosen are modern.
The basic shape of most beanies is the same but the differences come in with the colors and accessories chosen. A pristine white beanie with a huge pink flower turns that first photo shoot for a tiny girl into something unique. Many mothers belong to social media sites and want to be really proud of the first photographs they post of their newborn infant.
Many online retailers supply these items today. Some products are of a better quality than others and mothers who are looking for top quality items usually go for hand crafted items which are also sold online today. On these sites, prices can be compared and images viewed of babies wearing the items.
When making a choice, comfort, climate, gender and size are some of the factors to take into consideration. It is no use selecting a cheaply priced item because it looks beautiful only to find that it is uncomfortable and impractical for the baby to wear. Comfort and warmth will always be the primary consideration but many of the items available offer this as well as the cuteness factor.
