While traditionally, babies wore hats as there were concerns about the baby being able to regulate their temperature, these days it’s not considered necessary unless the temperature is very cold or they are out in the sun. 

But babies just look so cute in a sweet little baby hat (and so much more if it’s a handmade one!).
