My boys have both gone through major train phases. When my oldest was in kindergarten he started wearing home all these headbands they had made in class and thought they were the coolest things ever. So of course he needed a printable train conductor hat for when we watch The Polar Express this Christmas!
This printable includes a template that can be cut out to make a conductor hat with the base of the hat, a piece to wrap around their head and a few extra extension pieces. You will need to help the child size this to make sure it can fit around their head. Have a train loving kiddo? Make sure to check out our printable train template too!
