Boys Space Kippah – Zero Gravity Cotton Yarmulke

Shuttles, rockets, saucers and ringed planets drift across a deep navy ground, drawn in white outline and lit up with acid-lime highlights — and behind them, faint constellation lines join star to star. This boys' space kippah rewards a second look, which is precisely what a five-year-old does with the thing on his head. Sold by Judaica Square in Lakewood, NJ.

Perfect for

This is an upsherin kippah with staying power — the print is busy enough to be a treat for a three-year-old and graphic enough that an eight-year-old still wants to wear it to cheder. The navy ground keeps it school-appropriate where a bright print would not be, so it works as an everyday yarmulka rather than a Sunday-only novelty. Buy two sizes for brothers and let the older one explain the constellations.

Why parents love it

Printed cotton is the easy material: it takes a wash, dries fast, and a spilled grape juice is not the end of the kippah. The dark navy hides the fingerprints that a cream or light-blue yarmulka shows immediately. The store already carries the Space Kippah / Yarmulke and the Space Print Cotton Yarmulke / Kippah for Boys — those lean toward planets and stars on a lighter field, while Zero Gravity is the darker, denser, shuttle-and-rocket one. Blast Off Kippah – Cotton Yarmulke is the closest match for a brother who wants the same theme in a different drawing.

Frequently asked questions

What size kippah for a 3 year old at an upsherin?
Size 1 or 2 fits most three-year-olds. Size 2 is the safer buy if you want a few months of growing room.

Will this kippah stay on a young boy's head?
The shaped sizes grip better than a flat, and a pair of kippah clips solves the rest — ask us and we will add a set.

How do I clean a cotton kippah?
Hand wash cold with mild soap and let it air dry flat. Skip the dryer, which can shrink the shaping.

Can this be embroidered with my son's name?
Yes — there is no minimum order. Message us on WhatsApp with the spelling and we will set it up.

Is a printed kippah appropriate for shul?
On a boy, yes — a navy-ground print like this one is standard weekday and Shabbos wear in most shuls. Adults usually want a solid for davening.
