Hand and bath towels: gentle companions for every day
After bathing or showering, soft hand and bath towels are a must for the family. Children’s skin is delicate, so towels should be made from gentle materials. Cotton is especially soft, breathable and hypoallergenic and absorbs moisture quickly. Terry cloth, a cotton fabric with loops, is thick and fluffy and soaks up a lot of water. In our selection you will find cosy kids’ scarves & neckerchiefs to keep little necks warm and complement bath towels.
Cotton or terry – understanding the difference
The difference between cotton and terry lies in the weave. Cotton fabric is smooth and often used for clothing, while terry uses loops to make it highly absorbent. A high‑quality terry towel with a high thread count feels especially fluffy. Choose pure cotton without synthetic fibres, as it is more skin‑friendly and absorbs water better. For smaller babies, soft baby scarves & neckerchiefs are perfect for drying faces and hands.
Selecting and caring for the right towels
When selecting hand and bath towels, size and quality matter. A towel should measure at least 75×75 cm to wrap your child completely. Certifications like Oeko‑Tex assure you that the towels are free from harmful substances. Choose colours and patterns your child likes – drying off becomes more fun. Wash towels before first use with a mild detergent and skip the fabric softener to preserve absorbency. Our kids beach towels & bathrobes are practical companions for the swimming pool or beach.
Versatile and cuddly
Hand and bath towels are versatile: use them at home after baths, at the pool or during picnics by the lake. A snuggly towel can even double as a comfort blanket. Our comforters & soft toys are particularly popular companions that soothe children. To ensure a clean towel is always available, keep three or four on hand. After use, air dry your towels or tumble dry on low heat – avoid direct sunlight to keep them soft. With proper care, they will stay fluffy and absorbent for a long time.
