My son is just now starting to get a touch too big for them so I'm going to buy him the PBK hooded towels for kids. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/baby-bath-towels#post-139711 Fri, 27 Apr 2012 03:48:29 +0000 SugarplumsMom 139711@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We only have 2 hooded towels from Carter's. It's not as fluffy as I'd like but it'll do the job. I plan to supplement by making my own with some ultrasoft towels I found on sale. </p> <p>I Googled how to make it and it seems east enough: 2 large towels and 1 hand towel cut in half makes 2 hooded towels.</p> <p><a href="http://www.makeandtakes.com/easy-hooded-bath-towel" rel="nofollow">http://www.makeandtakes.com/easy-hooded-bath-towel</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/baby-bath-towels#post-139699 Fri, 27 Apr 2012 01:50:21 +0000 looch 139699@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I could have skipped baby towels completely, my son hates the hood, has from birth! We'll use the ones we have until they fall apart and then will use regular bath towels. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/baby-bath-towels#post-139050 Thu, 26 Apr 2012 17:49:11 +0000 His Barista 139050@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We use our regular towels. The baby hooded ones are soooo cute but we decided against them to save money. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/baby-bath-towels#post-139043 Thu, 26 Apr 2012 17:42:26 +0000 banana 139043@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We just use the regular adult towels cause I feel like they're more absorbent? I have 2 PBK towels that I got at my baby shower but we never use them cause they don't seem to soak up the water as well as our microfiber towels! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/baby-bath-towels#post-139009 Thu, 26 Apr 2012 17:26:02 +0000 tequiero21 139009@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We use the duck and alligator hooded towels from target. I wish They were thicker... I definitely like the hood tho! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/baby-bath-towels#post-139003 Thu, 26 Apr 2012 17:23:53 +0000 IcebergMom 139003@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We use our regular towels since the baby towels don't seem very absorbant. We tried two different brands though I can't remember what they were now. (How's that for helpful? haha) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/baby-bath-towels#post-138592 Thu, 26 Apr 2012 12:13:38 +0000 Boogs 138592@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We were gifted a couple of hooded bath towels, but I don't love any of them because they are pretty small and thin. If there are bigger and thicker options out there I would consider buying those. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/baby-bath-towels#post-138575 Thu, 26 Apr 2012 12:08:06 +0000 heffalump 138575@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ilove our baby Bath towels! We got them from bru. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/baby-bath-towels#post-138571 Thu, 26 Apr 2012 12:06:24 +0000 owlwho 138571@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Anything hooded, all our towels were gifts to us from target, babies, and pottery barn kids (get the kids size, we only used the small size for a few months). I like the target ones the most. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/baby-bath-towels#post-138475 Thu, 26 Apr 2012 11:23:48 +0000 lavender 138475@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have about 6 hooded towel sets (all gifted to us)! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/baby-bath-towels#post-138459 Thu, 26 Apr 2012 11:17:16 +0000 winniebee 138459@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We got 3 hooded towels which we'll probably use for the first year then maybe just use adult towels or get a toddler sized hooded towel. My niece is 3.5 years old and she still uses a (toddler) hooded towel - loves it! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/baby-bath-towels#post-138453 Thu, 26 Apr 2012 11:15:37 +0000 Mrs. Pen 138453@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I really wanted the Aden and Anais towel! But I didn't get it.. so we didn't end up getting one.<br /> We did get this cotton ducky blanket that we use as a towel because it's soft and absorbent and perfect for his delicate baby skin. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/baby-bath-towels#post-138439 Thu, 26 Apr 2012 11:07:52 +0000 mediagirl 138439@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We didn't get any as gifts (which I'm totally cool with since we got much more practical items) so I think we might just use one of our towels that we put away after I got new ones for the new house. Or, when we're at Babies R Us in a few weeks, maybe we'll pick one up for the fun of it. We'll see.... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/baby-bath-towels#post-138374 Thu, 26 Apr 2012 10:21:02 +0000 Lozza 138374@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DS hates anything on his head, including hooded towels. We own a few so they're in the towel rotation, and I understand that they make cute gifts, but I wouldn't ever buy them myself. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/baby-bath-towels#post-138356 Thu, 26 Apr 2012 10:09:04 +0000 SAHM0811 138356@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DD1 still loves her Dwell Studio hooded towel and she is 4 and tall for her age! They are pricey, but I got one at a sample sale. They might go on sale at Gilt once in a while. We definitely are making very good use of it.</p> <p>DD2 got gifted an infant PBK hooded towel and it's not going to last her much longer (she's 10 months now). I think I'm going to get her a Dwell Studio one next. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/baby-bath-towels#post-138350 Thu, 26 Apr 2012 10:05:30 +0000 Mrs. Sunglasses 138350@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We had hooded ones until Mavrick was about 18 months old (clearly too big for that tiny towel) Now we use smaller towels for him. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/baby-bath-towels#post-138348 Thu, 26 Apr 2012 10:05:03 +0000 Sweet T 138348@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>i have two towels that were made from regular adult towels but have a hood sewn onto them. they are our favorites by far! I also have a few from BRU that work really well. I would suggest making sure that the towels are the same material as you would buy for your own towels. We have some towels that are super thin and useless. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/baby-bath-towels#post-138345 Thu, 26 Apr 2012 10:03:23 +0000 chopsuey 138345@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I got a PBK baby hooded towel as a gift.<br /> Now we just use adult towels. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/baby-bath-towels#post-138343 Thu, 26 Apr 2012 10:02:36 +0000 purrpletulips 138343@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We got hooded towels as gifts so I use them, otherwise I probably would have just used the small adult towels we have. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/baby-bath-towels#post-138335 Thu, 26 Apr 2012 09:57:31 +0000 Mrs. Bee 138335@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>charlie adores, adores his hooded animal towels. he asks for the duck towel and the chicken towel. get the larger size pottery barn kids one if you do get them so they last longer. the small ones are pretty small. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/baby-bath-towels#post-138330 Thu, 26 Apr 2012 09:53:23 +0000 plaidpants 138330@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I thought baby-specific towels were kind of dumb, but we got a couple as gifts and we really do use them! Olive was born in December and we live in New England so it gets pretty cold. I was glad to have a hooded towel so that we could bundle her up as soon as the bath was over. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/baby-bath-towels#post-138328 Thu, 26 Apr 2012 09:48:43 +0000 autumnlove 138328@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have a few hooded towels from Target. We use regular adult towels when those towels are in the wash! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/baby-bath-towels#post-138309 Thu, 26 Apr 2012 09:37:17 +0000 Andrea 138309@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I liked Pottery Barn Kids towels the best. We used it for a while but then switched over to using the same adult towels that we use. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/baby-bath-towels#post-138306 Thu, 26 Apr 2012 09:36:18 +0000 mediagirl 138306@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Did you end up getting bath towels for your little one or did you use adult towels you already had? If you did get baby bath towels, what brand would you suggest? </p>
