Nammu Swim Hats

We’re good with sunscreen and we’ve even splashed out for UV-protective suits but what about the top of the noggin? Leave it to a mom of three busy boys to invent a better swim cap that protects against the sun while in, around and under water. Fashioned like a trendy bandana, with a tie at the back, the cap stays in place through diving, swimming and splashing. It’s one size fits all (even adults find them useful under helmets or while exercising outdoors), easy to care for and dries quickly. But what we like the most is that these hats help us spot our waterbabies more easily in busy pools or splashpads. ($9.99, available in a wide variety of colours at www.nammuhats.com)
