A child-sized yellow suit with a mesh veil that zips on, so the veil stays put when your child walks toward the hive. Elastic cuffs and ankles close the gaps, and the full front zip lets a child get in and out alone. Built for a small body, it turns a nervous first visit into a calm one.
Child-sized beekeeper suit with a removable, fireproof mesh veil for safe bee-watching
- stings to face and body for children near bees
- veil that is not secured to clothing
- loose cuffs and hems letting bees in
Let your child meet the bees, safely
Your child is excited about bees, but the veil slides and the sleeves ride up. This child-sized suit keeps the veil zipped on and the gaps closed, so the visit stays fun.
Built so the veil stays put
- A veil that stays zipped on
The mesh veil zips onto the suit at the neckline, so it stays in place when your child leans toward a frame or turns to watch the hive. Nobody has to readjust it every few minutes, and the kid can focus on the bees instead of the gear. The veil is made from fireproof mesh and is built to hold up to repeated visits.
- Cuffs and ankles that seal the gaps
Elastic cuffs at the wrists and elastic hems at the ankles hug the body, which closes the openings where bees most often crawl in. Run a finger along them and you will feel the give and the spring back. Fewer gaps means fewer worried moments at the hive.
- Built for a child-sized body
A full-length front zip lets a child get in and out without help, which matters when the group is waiting by the car. The suit is cut for a small frame, so the sleeves and legs stay in proportion instead of dragging the way an adult suit does.

Easy to keep clean between visits
- Remove the veil
The veil unzips from the suit, so it can be cleaned separately from the body.
- Store it dry
Hang or fold the suit dry between sessions so it is ready for the next visit.
- Check the zip
Run the front zip and the veil zipper before each visit so they close smoothly on the day.

Questions and answers
Yes. The veil zips onto the suit at the neckline, so it stays on the hood when your child moves near the hives. Zip it on at home and check it before you walk over.
There are two sizes, M and L, with the ranges listed on this page. Measure your child, compare the numbers, and choose the size that fits snugly at the wrists and ankles. An oversized suit leaves gaps, which defeats the elastic.
The suit gives a child a closed, veiled outfit with a full front zip, elastic cuffs, elastic ankles and a mesh veil. It is not a guarantee against stings, so keep children supervised and follow the beekeeper's instructions at every visit.
The suit is sized for a child, so it will not fit like an adult suit and should not be mixed with adult veils. Smokers and hive tools are separate items and are not included in this set.
The veil is mesh, so air moves across the face. The body is a cotton-blend fabric rather than a ventilated mesh, so keep sessions shorter on very hot days and let your child take breaks in the shade.
An adult suit swallows a child and leaves gaps at the wrists, ankles and face. This set puts the suit, veil and gloves in one purchase, and the premium cotton-blend fabric holds up across repeated visits. You skip piecing gear together and skip the fitting problems that come with it.
