About Touched by Nature hooded towels

The hood is doing the work a bath towel cannot: a wet baby loses heat from the head first, and getting a hood over it is the difference between a calm minute on a changing mat and a screaming one. These are organic cotton rather than terry-and-polyester, which means they take a little longer to dry on the rail and feel less scratchy on skin that has just been in warm water.

They are sized for a baby, not a toddler, and most families retire them somewhere around a year, at which point the washcloths that came in the pack carry on for another two, usually in the kitchen. Buy two if bathing happens in the evening: a towel that has not dried by the next night is the reason people end up using a bath sheet instead.

Questions about touched by nature hooded towels

Answered for this line rather than for the whole range: 5 colorways, 1 sizes, $15.99 to $22.99.

How long will a Touched by Nature hooded towel fit your baby?

Baby-sized rather than toddler-sized, which is why families tend to replace them around a year. The hood is the part that stops fitting first.

Do you get washcloths with a Touched by Nature hooded towel?

Most of the packs on this page do, in the same print. The washcloths outlast the towel by a long way.

Will organic cotton dry your baby as fast as terry?

It holds slightly less water and takes slightly longer to dry, and it is noticeably softer on skin straight out of a bath. If bathing is nightly, own two rather than one.
