Will the mom police come after me if I admit to hating Flap Happy hats? I’m sorry, I know they protect well, but they’re just so danged ugly.
The Coolibar line of sun hats is just as protective, blocking 98 percent of damaging UV rays, and much easier on the eye. Give one of the Chlorine-Resistant Bucket Hats a try for older boys and girls, or try on a blue or pink chin-strapped sun hat for babies. No, your chubby infant isn’t instantly transformed into Audrey Hepburn in Breakfast at Tiffany’s, but the things stay on.

I will join your gang of flap happy hat haters, and we can start a militia to defend ourselves against those police. they are bad bad bad. and these are damn cute.
