Frequently asked questions
What should my baby wear for hiking in summer?
Light layers in breathable natural fabrics — a short-sleeve organic cotton top, lightweight shorts or trousers, and a sun hat or turban for shade. See our full guide to sun protection for babies.
Is linen too delicate for active kids?
Not at all — linen is actually quite durable and gets softer (not weaker) with washing. It’s a great choice for warm-weather play.
How do I keep muslin and linen looking good?
Wash at 30–40°C, skip the tumble dryer, and let them air dry. Both fabrics soften beautifully over time.
