Updated: 62 reusable cloth masks for kids

As the wearing of non-medical grade masks slowly becomes part of the new normal, it’s important to find a mask that’s designed to fit smaller faces. Here, we’ve rounded up some washable options that are currently in stock. (Note: with such high demand, inventory depletes regularly and back orders are common. Please check back frequently for availability.)

While these masks will not stop your child from getting coronavirus, health officials in both Canada and the United States have advised that wearing non-medical cloth masks could help prevent the spread of COVID-19.

For the most effective use, be sure to practice appropriate mask hygiene after each wear.
