How To Find The Best Breathable Cotton Mask for Kids?

With this global pandemic hitting us harder, if you are on the market with a lookout to buy a mask that will protect yourself and others from COVID-19, make sure you go for a three layer mask. You might have already heard this recommendation, the researchers have now found a reason why three layer masks are safer than single or double layer alternatives.

Along with layers, fabrics also play an important role when choosing a mask to wear all-day long. The fabric of a face mask should be more comfortable and breathable.

With a stronger recommendation to wear face masks, it is more important than ever to wear a protective face mask that you can wear throughout the day and be comfortable in. As the weather becomes more humid, having a cotton breathable mask for kids becomes even more important to prevent the inside of the mask from becoming too hot. If the mask is uncomfortable, it will be harder to tolerate and your child will keep on touching his/her face more often to adjust it.

 

Which is the best breathable fabric for comfortable face masks?

Many luxury fabrics are light, breathable, and soft, such as 100% premium cotton. Cotton is the most common lightweight material that is known for being soft and comfortable to wear. 100% premium cotton insulates sweat and keeps you cool. This makes cotton the best and most preferred fabric for face masks.

How to pick a three layer mask that is best for you?

There are always five things to consider when buying a mask that is for yourself and your children.

Great fitting: Does the mask fit snugly around your face but is not too constricting? The mask should sit comfortably under your chin, fit you perfectly across the bridge of your cheeks and nose, and hug the sides of your cheeks and face without any gaps. This is the perfect way to ensure a proper fit.

Long-term use: Do not forget to check upon whether the mask is washable and will retain its shape without damage after washing.

Moisture wicking: Fabrics with soft material, such as cotton, pull moisture away from your skin, letting you stay cooler.

Breath ability: Look for three layered tight woven cotton masks to ensure breath ability. Do not wear masks made out of fleece or linen as they may not provide as much filtration as 100% premium cotton.

Tips for parents when picking masks for their kids

 

• Size and fit for kids: It should fit over the nose and under the chin without gaping at the sides.

• Keep it fun for kids: Make it fun and allow them to choose their own mask with their favorite color and print on it. This will more likely make them wear the masks when out.

• Explain to them when it is and isn’t necessary to wear the mask: Make your child learn when and how it is appropriate to take breaks from wearing the masks, such as when they are at a safe distance from other people.

Tips for Choosing the Perfect Comfort Home Wear for Kids

Finding the right comfortable home wear for kids can be challenging. On one hand, you want them to look nice, and on the other, you will find them outgrowing their clothes in a single season. So, how to strike that perfect balance between cost and quality?

Overall, children need comfortable, high-quality, and versatile clothes that will allow them to move and play around freely. To make the utmost use of your money spent, get classic wardrobe basics ranging from stylish dresses to kurta pyjama set unisex. And since staying home is the new normal, a child should also master the art of stylish yet comfortable lounge wear.

Comfort is key for your little ones, so, here is how to choose the coolest, comfiest thing for your child.

Comfort is the King

We all will agree upon the fact that kids rarely sit still. With all-day running, jumping, and lounging around, their home wear needs to be comfortable. Avoid fabrics that will hinder their movements and keep them stay prepped and ready for action. Check out Indie Project Store’s range of soft, organic pieces - they are made using 100% cotton and are perfect for a casual day out or summer evenings.

Kurta Pajamas all-day

Who says you can’t sit in your pyjamas all day? Summer vacations call for a comfy yet cool cotton kurta pyjama set, and we love Indie Project Store’s vibrant colored sets, which come in a range of hand block printed patterns that are so cute you will wish they came in adult’s sizing.

No excess, please

Tight clothing is a no-no for kids. Anything loose, comfortable will simply get in the way. Swathes of materials might look pretty and attractive but when you are at home, it will limit your freedom of movement and get caught here, there, and everywhere. Save the baggy trousers, big and flare skirts for dress-up and festivals.

  

Finesses the fit

No one feels comfortable with clothes that ride up. And for kids, look for cotton kurtas and dresses, or switch to onesies that will make them feel free at home. Jumpsuits are a great choice; also try cotton printed shorts that will ease out your child’s movement.

Breathable, well-tailored, and cotton fabrics

As kids love to play and run around, this makes breathable tops essential for mini creatures. Get materials like cotton mesh fabric that is both soft and airy for a comfortable, confident fit. High-quality tops have shaped side seams and vents so the shirt keeps its shape even when untucked or free-flowing. Select tops that are fitted just right and not too tight for the most room to grow. This will allow the air to flow and keep sweat at bay.
