It’s only a matter of time before they tell you none of their friends wear hats, and so they don’t need to.

Sounds like it’s time for new friends.

Meet the Muddy Cloud gang — Joop, Doot, Tada, Balob, and Beep — stuffed fleece dolls with unique ears and heads.

Each doll has a corresponding winter hat, which makes getting dressed to go out like getting ready for a costume party — especially when you pair the cap with paws, er, mittens. 

Hats off to the mom and dad behind these stuffed creatures for giving us the cutest, cuddliest, and easiest way to dupe Junior into bundling up this side of the Arctic.

Talk about using your head.
