Where to buy face masks for kids
Find disposable and cloth options for little faces.
Due to recent events, many stores are experiencing a shortage of certain products. Be aware that many retailers may currently be out of stock, have longer shipping times than usual or be charging above-average prices. Remember that stockpiling items isn’t actually necessary right now and that over-buying can leave others vulnerable.
As many countries release guidelines and require face masks to be worn in public, parents may be wondering where they can find disposable or cloth face masks that fit their children’s faces, and don’t look quite so scary as regular medical masks.

Do kids need to wear face masks?
The CHP now recommends that all adults and children over the age of two wear a face mask while out in public spaces when it’s impossible to stay at least six feet away from others. It is recommended that anyone who has symptoms of illness (even mild ones) wear a surgical mask in public, including children.
The Centre for Health Protection cautions that children younger than two should not wear facial coverings or masks.
What kind of mask should my child wear?
Options are fairly limited for children with Etsy and other makers offering larger selections for kids. Most options widely available online are cloth, machine-washable masks. However, limited disposable masks for kids are also available. To create a DIY cloth mask, you can use a T-shirt to create an effective barrier.
What about children with special health needs?
It is recommended that high risk or severely immunocompromised children should wear an N95 mask. The families of these children are also encouraged to wear surgical masks if they are sick.
What if my child doesn’t want to wear a mask?
We recommend parents practise wearing masks at home before going out to get your children used to the idea. Parents could also try putting a mask on their child’s favourite stuffed animal or toy character, decorating a mask or showing their child pictures of other children wearing masks. If your child doesn’t understand the need for masks, focus on the idea of germs and explain that sometimes people wear masks when they are sick, and when they are better, they don’t need to wear them anymore.
You could also surprise your child with a mask featuring their favourite Disney character or in their favourite colour from one of the retailers listed here.
