Best Kids' Costume Hats of 2025

"I was thrilled with this complete set for my son's birthday. It came with two hats and bandanas, plus a functioning whistle. My son looked adorable, even if he wouldn't wear the hat!"

"My husband got this for our little boy, and I must say, the hat and bandana are cute and well-made. The whistle produces a decent sound, although the hat feels a bit cheap. Still, it’s a good value overall."

"I ordered this set for my niece, and she looked super cute in the hat and bandana. The whistle is the highlight; it's easy for her to blow into and makes a fun sound!"

"I was thrilled with the quality of the hats! They are adorable and very durable, perfect for my 16-month-old grandson. He absolutely loved them! They fit perfectly into our preschool unit on 'community helpers.' The only thing I noticed is that the yellow construction hat resembles a 'miner' style, but it's definitely the cutest hat in the collection!"

"I was a bit hesitant to spend this much on play hats, but once they arrived, I felt it was worth it! The thick plastic is perfect for toddlers, and the working light on the yellow hat is super bright! I can't wait for my son to try these out on Christmas!"

"I bought a set of these hats for my kindergarten class with 24 kids. They are well made and really fun! The construction hat with the light is a huge hit. However, I did notice that some kids have a little trouble with the chin straps. I encourage them to ask a friend for help, which also teaches them a bit about perseverance!"

"My 8-year-old grandson adores this Daniel Boone Cap. I bought it when he was 5, and he still wears it for our woods walks or while pretending to live off the grid. It has held up really well after three years of use."

"I got this for my son for Christmas but wish I had spent more on a better quality hat. It's quite cheap and not really appropriate for kids as it’s more of an adult size. If you need it for a costume, it's fine, but for actual play, I'd recommend something nicer."

"Me gustó mucho porque está muy bien elaborado y lo recomiendo mucho."

“I bought this for my nephew to wear while riding his toy horse, and it's super cute!”

“The hat looks just like the photo! It fits children perfectly, but I wouldn’t recommend it for adults as it’s too small. The quality is great for the price.”

“My son loves the hat! It’s lightweight and of good quality. He wears it all the time.”

"I really love the style and texture of this hat. It's definitely meant for kids since it doesn't fit my head, but I managed to pin it to my hair in a top bun, and it worked out great. I received a lot of compliments on how pretty it is and its good quality."

"This hat is absolutely wonderful! I truly wish they would make a version for adults, as it is clearly designed for children, despite any assumptions about fitting."

"I appreciate how this hat looks and feels; it doesn't seem flimsy or cheap compared to others I've seen in stores. However, like others have pointed out, the size is quite small. For reference, my 7-year-old wears it, but it will need some securing before Halloween."

"I was searching for pretend play hats for my classroom, but I found these to be incredibly offensive. I couldn't imagine bringing them in for my students."

"Honestly, I would get fired if I introduced these hats to my class. Seriously, what was Amazon thinking?"

"This little hat was the perfect addition to my niece's outfit for the rodeo. Its sturdy design and bright pink color with jewels stood out beautifully! The fit was just right, and she loved wearing it. She got so many compliments and people were surprised it was an Amazon find! We had a blast dressing her up as a cowgirl for our rodeo adventure!"

"My granddaughter adores this hat. She even wears it when she’s not galloping on her stick horse! It's a nice weight and fits her perfectly as a 4-year-old."

"My 3-year-old daughter is absolutely in love with this hat. It’s very cute! I only rated it 4 stars because she managed to pull part of the string out. While it seems easy to fix, it ended up bunching up a bit. I’ve had similar hats, and when you squeeze to adjust the string, it usually doesn’t bunch up like this one did."

"I bought this set for the flying pig, but all three are so adorable. Everyone loved them!"

"We wore our headpieces to a 2-year-old's birthday with a barnyard theme, and they were a hit! We received so many compliments!"

"I found the pig hat a bit tight, but it was still functional. It was a fun icebreaker for our Zoom conference."

"I received both the hat and parrot in good condition but they came in a single unmarked plastic bag. I had to stitch the parrot's strap to make it fit my 6-year-old. The hat is a bit big, but it will work overall."

"The parrot was a big hit with my kids. They had fun playing with it, although it doesn’t sit upright on my shoulder. I’m considering using double-sided Velcro next time to keep it in place."

"I found the hat to be of great quality, but the parrot was quite disappointing. It was meant for a child, and as soon as we took it out, one of the wings fell off. It was frustrating since we were on a cruise and couldn’t fix it."

“I ordered this hat for my grandson, and he absolutely loves it!”

“When I received my surprise gift, I was completely shocked! My daughters adored the hats and toys. Thank you so much for thinking of us.”

“I got this hat for my daughter, but I ended up enjoying it even more! It’s super fuzzy and cute, and I’ve found so many uses for it!”
