    The Bedhead Toddler Bucket is the soft little step between a baby flap hat and a bigger-kid bucket. Made from 95% cotton and 5% elastane jersey with UPF50+ protection, it has a felt anti-flop brim that stays clear of little eyes but still folds gently when they lean back in the pram or car seat.

    With both the fabric and finished hat design tested for UPF protection, you can feel confident while they get on with daycare, park days and those first busy adventures on two feet. A stretchy chin strap with adjustable toggle helps keep it where it belongs.

    BEST SUITED TO: Babies and toddlers still using prams, strollers, car seats, carriers and slings, especially little ones starting to sit, crawl and explore.

    • UPF50+ Excellent Protection
    • Fabric and finished hat design tested for UPF protection in accordance with AS/NZS 4399
    • Felt anti-flop brim keeps its shape while staying soft in prams and car seats
    • Made from 95% cotton and 5% elastane jersey
    • Soft, stretchy and lightweight for everyday wear
    • SunSmart-recommended brim depths (see size tab for measurements)
    • Designed for prams, carriers, daycare and everyday outdoor play
    • 'Return to' label to help hats get home safely
    • Stretch chin strap with adjustable toggle
    • Machine washable - gentle cold wash and line dry in the shade

    NOTE: Chin strap can easily be removed if required without compromising the quality of the hat - you just need scissors!

     

  • One fact you can be sure of - no two heads are the same! ALWAYS measure your child's head before purchasing to ensure getting the accurate size.

    Step 1: Distract the child with a toy or food (so they don't try and help you!).

    Step 2: Use a measuring tape to take measurement. Otherwise use a ribbon to take the size then use a ruler to find the measurement.

    Step 3: Purchase the size closest to your childs measurement. Our hats are very stretchy and will grow up to 4cm.

    FOR EXAMPLE: The child measures 45cms, you will need the 47cm size giving plenty of future wear. It's important to get the hat closest to your head size, if it's too big the hat will block the child's vision, causing uncomfort and a good chance of them pulling it off.

  • Sun protection you can trust
    Little heads deserve great sun protection.
    At Bedhead, we take sun safety seriously. Our UPF50+ hats undergo specialist laboratory testing to Australian Standard AS 4399:2020.
    We don't just submit a piece of fabric for testing. Our finished hats are assessed across multiple material components, including the crown and brim, with the overall UPF rating determined by the lowest-performing component.
    It's one of the ways we make sure our sun protection claims are backed by proper testing.
     
    What does UPF50+ mean?
    UPF stands for Ultraviolet Protection Factor. It measures how effectively a material blocks ultraviolet (UV) radiation. A UPF50+ rating means the tested material blocks at least 98% of UV radiation.
    For our laboratory-tested finished hats, the UPF rating takes into account the different material components of the hat, rather than relying on a single fabric sample.
     
    Why does hat design matter?
    UPF50+ fabric is only part of good sun protection. The shape and fit of a hat matter too.
    A tiny brim or shallow crown can leave little faces, ears and necks exposed, even when the fabric itself provides excellent UV protection. That's why we design our hats with generous coverage, comfortable fits and our unique anti-flop brims, helping keep the hat in place while little ones explore.
    For the best sun protection, always combine hats with protective clothing, sunscreen, shade and sunglasses.
     
    No added UV chemical treatments
    Our UPF50+ protection comes from the fabric itself, not from an added UV-protective chemical coating or treatment. The fibres, fabric construction, knit or weave, and colour all contribute to how effectively the material blocks UV radiation.
    Our fabrics undergo specialist laboratory testing to verify their UPF performance, ensuring our sun protection claims are supported by documented test results.
