Summer is just around the corner, which means that beach days and family holidays are on the rise. Heading on a road trip (whether five minutes or five hours) to the beach with little ones in tow can prove to be logistically a little more challenging. 

With our hooded beach towels for kids, there's one less thing to think about. 

Is there anything cuter than seeing your little one wrapped up after a bath or a quick dip? Probably not. But looking adorable isn't the only reason to keep your child snug when drying off — hooded beach towels have a whole plethora of benefits.

Essentially, it's a child-sized towel that comes with a hood to offer additional warmth and coverage — with space to play, run and adventure away. Like all of our kids' towels, the material is lightweight and soft. 

As a parent, you’re likely already sold on the practicality of a hooded towel, but what about your kid? Below are five reasons your child will also love a hooded beach towel.

#1: Kids Hooded Beach Towels are Warm & Cosy

All parents know the feeling of their child launching towards you, shivering after a dip, with a look in their eye every parent will recognise; "Get me warm, now!"

A child’s hooded beach towel is the ultimate in warm and cosy relief — an all-in-one solution. This safety net encourages your little ones to have fun in the water, knowing they have a warm and absorbent towel to wear as soon as the cold outweighs the fun. 

#2: It's an Extra Layer For The Sun

A child's hooded towel provides an extra layer of protection between your little one's skin and the sun. Your little one will love flipping up the hood to keep the sun out of their eyes, so they can get back to the important things like building sandcastles, digging holes and finding the biggest shell on the beach. Plus, you can rest assured that their shoulders and faces are covered away.

#3: There Are Pockets For Shell Collecting

Here at Sheridan, our hooded beach towels for kids come with a crowd favourite: pockets. Explorers and adventurers alike will love the generous front pocket, designed to store all of their treasures.

If you’re a parent used to hearing the phrase, "Can you hold this?" followed by a sandy pile of shells being hurled your way, this handy pocket will be a dream come true.

Collecting shells and other beach treasures is a fun way to instil an appreciation of nature in your children. 

#4: Absorbent While on The Run

A kid's hooded towel makes drying off easy as 1..2..3… No child likes to stand around and either be dried or dry themselves; the practicality of drying off hands-free is a win-win for parents and children. 

For children, everything is new, and every responsibility can feel overwhelming; there simply isn't time for drying off in a child's world — with a hooded towel, although they still carry the responsibility upon their shoulders, they aren't weighed down by the task.

#5: It'll Never Get Left Behind

With a kid's hooded beach towel, it's unlikely that your brand-new beach towel will be left behind in the sand.

Running off the point above, the hands-free nature of the hooded towel means that children are less likely to throw it and go.

You’ll return home with everything you left with, with no tears about forgotten items. 

What Fabrics Do We Offer?

As with all of Sheridan's products, our materials are hand-selected to provide quality, longevity and a touch of luxury to your home — and to your travels. Our hooded beach towels for kids are made with soft, absorbent cotton. 

It’s the perfect choice for kids' beach towels, especially in Australia. Cotton’s known for its absorbency, attracted to water rather than repelled by it. All of this is to say that cotton makes for an ideal beach or bath companion. 

So when shopping for kids hooded towels in Australia, Sheridan is a brand you can trust. We do our research, so you don't have to — happy shopping.
