Need to Get Your Kids Face Masks? Here’s Where to Buy Them Online

"

The Centers for Disease Control recently updated its guidelines, encouraging everyone over the age of 2 to wear a face mask to help slow the spread of COVID-19. When in a public setting, CDC advises adults and kids alike to don a non-medical mask.

Remember, CDC tells us that a mask won’t negate the need for proper social distancing. When out and about, you will still need to maintain a distance of at least 6 feet from those outside your household, even when wearing a mask. Wash all masks after each use and wash your hand thoroughly.

Concerned your little one will flat out refuse to cover their face? Let them pick out a mask that suits their fancy. Have them practice wearing it around your home, and lead by example—normalize mask-wearing by having your child see you in yours.

While face masks for adults abound, persuading a small child to strap something to their mouth is going to take some adorable, whimsical, and delightful designs. Lucky for us, we scoured online boutiques to find some of the cutest options around.

Little Goodall

Hand sewn in Texas, every Little Goodall item is infused with imagination and whimsy. The mom-run shop has added to its offerings of beautifully made dresses, coats, and accessories to offer face masks for women and children. Sewn from some of the same fabrics used throughout the line, these masks are simple cotton coverings with soft elastic at the ears. It feels strange to say it, but these masks are downright pretty.

If you want to purchase simple masks for the whole family, Avocado may be your best bet.
