PRODUCT DETAILS
What's in the Box
- Lion headpiece cap with attached plush mane, foam ears, cartoon eyes and adjustable chin strap
This Kids Lion Headpiece with Mane and Ears is the one-piece animal hat that does all the heavy lifting — thick caramel-and-cream faux fur mane, dimensional foam ears, and bold cartoon eyes mean your child walks in and everyone knows exactly who they are. A natural pick for Book Week lion characters or any school animal dress-up day.
The golden-brown cap base sits softly against the skin, while the plush mane fans out around the face for that full storybook-king look. An embroidered snout and whisker dots finish the face detail.
Perfect For
Book Week & School Events: A ready-made match for lion characters in classic children's literature — from brave jungle storybook heroes to any bold lion in a school character parade or kindy animal concert.
Safari & Zoo Birthday Parties: Instant lion transformation for safari-themed birthday parties, zoo excursion dress-ups, or wildlife adventure days where kids come as their favourite animals.
Everyday Dress-Up Play: Sturdy enough for backyard adventures and imaginative play at home — the chin strap means it stays on whether your child is prowling the lounge room or ruling the backyard pride.
How to Wear It
Pair with a brown or tan long-sleeve top and matching trousers for a complete lion look. Add a quick dot of face paint for a nose and whiskers and the costume is done — no extra pieces needed.
Parent FAQs
Q: Will this fit my child's head size?
The cap comes in Small (under 6 yrs), Medium (7–12 yrs), and Large (adult), with a stretchy base and adjustable chin strap to accommodate a range of head sizes — check the size chart above before ordering.
Q: Does the chin strap actually keep it on during active play?
Q: Is this suitable for Book Week lion characters?
Absolutely — the playful cartoon styling suits storybook lions of all kinds, from the lion inThe Lion Insideby Rachel Bright to any brave jungle king from a class reader.
Q: How do I keep the mane fluffy after storage?
A gentle finger-fluff or wide-tooth comb restores the plush mane after it's been squashed in a school bag — it bounces back easily.
Care:Spot clean only with damp cloth. Air dry flat away from direct heat.
