LIDS FOR KIDS
These one-of-a-kind hats were specifically designed to keep one's neck warm with-out having to worry about a scarf falling off and leaving the neck exposed to the bitter winter cold, or worse, having the scarf choke the kid! There are no gaps between a hat and a scarf allowing chilly air to sneak in. This unique, hand-made lid keeps the warmth in and the cold out.
