A hooded towel
When it comes to bath time, pool time, or even a day outdoors, a hooded towel is a fabulous thing to keep within reach in the bathroom, or in the diaper bag. You’ll want to add several of these to your newborn registry or when you’re shopping for things you want to add to the nursery. These are perfect for folding and stockpiling because they don’t take up much space, despite their plushness. You’ll want a hooded towel that is soft to the touch and smooth against baby’s skin.
