Q: I put this in the dryer accidentally. Is it ruined?

I did the same and contacted iPlay. This was their response: "The UPF coating on your Swim Hat should not be negatively affected after one cycle in the dryer, however, we do not recommend continued drying cylces. The UPF coating is considered to be durable for the life of the garment, but will gradually start to wash out after about 30 washes. All our UV-protected sun wear is treated with the patented Rayosan technology by Clariant. They Rayosan treatment increases the SPF of fabric without changing the fabric's appearance, handle, or breathability. This specially treated fabric will offer an additional layer of sun protection for baby's sensitive skin, especailly before the age recommended for sunscreen use. Although it is a chemical process, it was tested and passed the Oeko-Tex 100 certification process; this certification ensures us that the Rayosan process does not contain harmful substances. We share the Oeko-Tex commitment to your personal safety and supporting environmentally sound processes. The coating is safe and it is intended to be washed."

Q: What is the good size for a 13 month old? his head is 18.5in but I would like to keep it for a while if possible.

These hats have a draw string in the back to make it bigger or smaller. I believe I bought the 0-6 month size for my baby. He was 2.5 months and is now a little over 5 months. I haven't had to adjust it very much and he still has room to grow. They have a 9-18 month old size that I would imagine your 13 month old would be able to wear for quite awhile. I love this hat and plan to get him a bigger one once he grows out of this one. It's the only hat I use unfortunately for the other hats I have for him.

Q: My almost 5 month twins have 16 and a 17 in head circumference. Should I get 0-6 month or 9-18 month size? dont want them to outgrow it too quick

I would recommend the 9-18 month size. The hat is slightly fitted and made of cotton so it doesn't stretch much. The tie underneath keeps the hat tight and secure.

Q: My daughters almost 16 months old and her height and head circumference always measure above the 99th % should I get the 18 month or 2t-4t?

My son is almost 12 months and he's got a big head too! We have the up to 18 month one and fits perfect I'd go with the 2T one and it's adjustable so if it is a little big or will be fine!
