I wanted a wide-brimmed sun hat for my one-year-old to wear this summer. This is an adorable hat, and it will definitely have a wide enough brim to protect her face, neck, and shoulders. At first she didn't want to wear it, but once we went out into the bright sun she seemed to get the idea that she was more comfortable with it on :) It wrinkles a bit in the wash, but the colors didn't bleed.
