Sometimes it can be tricky, trying to find a face mask that perfectly fits your face. Finding face masks for children can be even more difficult.
Since July, there has been a bylaw in place that requires adult Torontonians to wear a face mask or facial covering inside all enclosed public places.
According to the City, children under the age of two should not wear face masks. “These very young children must not wear a face covering because of the risk of suffocation.”
If you’ve been in search of face masks for older children, look no further because we’ve compiled a list of places you can purchase them from:
Christopher Paunil
Christopher Paunil’s face masks come in three sizes – Adult, Pre-Teen/Teen/Petite, and Child. They sell for $15 each, with $2 from every sale donated to Toronto-based charity UForChange.
