Hi,
I am a longtime lover of your blog and just received the email about masks for kids. I am also a coordinator for a large mask making group in Illinois and have ties to several large mask making groups in the US. I really appreciate the mask advocacy and there are a lot of push back on mask wearing especially for kids. The one thing I would like to point out is that a good mask that gives the most protect is 100% cotton that is tight woven. Studies prove that other kinds of materials are not as good at filtering. Second, be very careful about suggestion glitter kinds of fabrics that will be covering people’s mouths and that they will be breathing through. All fabrics are not safe to breathe through for a long period of time and glittery fabrics can be made with sharp (on terms of the inside of your lungs) kinds of thread which is woven into the fabric to cause the reflections, those particles being embedded in the printing ink or chemicals that we know nothing about but would not wash out but your child would be breathing through. Safe is best. Cotton with a non glittery look is safe to breathe through once you wash it in a hot dryer, no unknown chemicals and the dye or ink will not have sharp particles. We re donate all metallic or glittery fabric that we receive and any that we can see through and/or is not 100% cotton. Thanks for all you do, Beth

Thank you Beth!
Great feedback!!

We bought the Cubcoats ones and they are super cute, but they were much too big for my preschoolers. They fit me but I also have a small face.

Hi there friends, good paragraph and nice arguments commented at this place, I am really enjoying by these.
