7 Ways To Dress Your Baby Like A Real Sports Fan

Do you bleed team colors? Do you already know you’ll be carting your baby to dozens of games, pre-shows and viewing parties? Outfit your child the right away with these seven examples of tiny sports fashion.

1: Hats

From beanies to baseball caps, hats are one of the easiest ways to turn your baby into a super fan. As a bonus, they’ll also keep your little one cozy and warm when you just have to see that away game in person.

2: Slings

Baby slings are all the rage for parents on the go, and with fabric in your team’s colors or branded by your team’s logos, you can now imbue your child with the proper spirit even before they’re capable of speech.

3: Pacifiers

When the ref makes a bad call, you might need one of these in an adult size to prevent yourself from shouting something rude and getting kicked out of the game. As it stands, however, a team binky will be mighty soothing for the baby.

4: Sleepers

Perfect for babies and infants of all ages, sleepers are the all-in-one alternative to uniforms or pint-sized cheerleading outfits. They’ll proclaim your love for the team without sacrificing, say, easy maneuverability for diaper removal.

5: Bibs

Let your baby spread mushed peas all over your team when they lose in the finals. Not only is it cathartic, but as your baby grows older and gains better motor control, you can reward them with a new bib and a more successful team.

6: Bottle Grippers

When the day is too cold for a regular bottle, or if your baby is sensitive to temperature and requires a protective cover for their milk or juice, a bottle gripper will save the day. Throw in a few team colors and you’ve got yourself a cute picture in the making!

7: Mascot Wear

Babies were made for mascot wear. Suit them up in a jaguar costume; add dolphin flippers to their feet; give them a fierce scowl with birds, bears or buffalo. There’s no limit to the way you can dress up your tot according to the team’s mascot.

When teaching your child the true meaning of athletics, good sportsmanship is only second to good gear. You have their entire lives to teach them about fairness and honest play, but you only have a few years to enjoy them as young and adorable in an itty-bitty jersey. Shop BabyFans.com or other retailers for more pint-sized gear.
