Why choose a hooded towel for your baby or child?
Unmatched softness
Hooded towels, especially those made from organic cotton, provide exceptional softness for the delicate skin of babies and young children. After bath time, they wrap your child in a cocoon of warmth and comfort.
A practical solution
The poncho shape or integrated hood efficiently covers the child’s body and head, helping to prevent heat loss. It is also easy to use: simply wrap your child in it to dry them quickly.
Materials to prioritise
Organic cotton, a responsible choice
Organic cotton is ideal. Certified free from harmful chemicals, it respects children’s sensitive skin while also being eco friendly. Look for products carrying the OEKO-TEX label, which guarantees the absence of harmful substances.
Fabric weight
A higher fabric weight (for example 400 g/m² or more) ensures good water absorption and excellent durability. Terry towelling is particularly recommended for its absorbent quality.
How to choose the right size?
Different sizes available
- For babies from 0 to 12 months: choose a 70 x 70 cm size.
- For children up to 5 years old: opt for a larger hooded towel, such as 100 x 100 cm.
Elements to consider:
- The presence of a hood to dry hair effectively.
- Quality finishes, such as reinforced edges.
- The design, which may include playful patterns appreciated by children.
Frequently asked questions in Belgium
What is the difference between a hooded towel and a classic towel?
The hooded towel is specially designed for children. Its hood helps keep the head warm, while its enveloping shape makes drying easier and more complete.
How should an organic cotton hooded towel be cared for?
To extend the lifespan of your hooded towel, wash it at 30 to 40 °C with a gentle detergent. Avoid fabric softeners, which may reduce the cotton’s absorbency.
