Some very crafty local women are trying to spread the word across Alabama about a cause they have taken to heart.
CLICK for Babies is a national grassroots campaign organized by the National Center on Shaken Baby Syndrome. Under the effort volunteers knit or crochet purple hats for newborns in hopes that new parents will not only have something to keep their child’s head warm, but also serve as a reminder that babies do cry and to think before they let frustration take control of them.
