KIDS who have returned to a school in China are wearing specially designed “social distancing hats” to keep them safe.
The creative headwear dubbed a “one-meter hat” ensures pupils returning from several months away to space themselves out to prevent the spread of coronavirus.
Four classes of first-year pupils at Yangzheng School in Hangzhou, capital of Zhejiang Province in east China, were allowed to return to their classes for the first time yesterday as the lockdown was lifted.
Each of the children could be seen wearing a surgical mask and "social distancing hat", which has a 3-foot-long measuring tool jutting out the sides.
Most are made of cardboard, but at least one creative girl has made hers using balloons used to make balloon animals.
