Are the “cute little tallitot” worn by these little pirḥei k'hunah really big enough to cover their heads? The kohanim raise their hands every day in Y'rushalayim תוב"ב and there are often many hundreds of them at the kotel ma'aravi on shabbatot v'ḥaggim, including children who can sometimes be as young as ten—although I’ve never seen a child who appeared younger than that. Of course, the kotel is rather a unique place.
