The sizes of all kippot shown in this website are referred to their diameter (shown in cm). A diameter simply means the length of a central line which extends from one side of the kipa to its opposite side.
In order to know the right size of kippa for your head, simply measure the circumference of the area where you normally wear your kippa. You can do so by a measuring tape, a ruler or even a string or shoe lace.
For an approximate head circumference of 40cm (15.7") you will need a small sized kipa.
For an approximate head circumference of 44cm (17.3") you will need a small or medium sized kipa.
For an approximate head circumference of 48cm (18.9") you will need a medium or large sized kipa.
The variety of stylish children's yarmulkes is so big that it features colorful patterns based on cartoon characters, comics' characters and even sports such as basketball style kippa, football style kippa etc. These children yarmulkes are mostly common with the knitted kippot genre. Common patterns of children yarmulkes feature Jewish symbols such as the Star of David, Menorahs, Hebrew letters etc.
As for special events, it is still the tradition that impacts the most. White yarmulkes are the most common yarmulkes in Jewish festive such as Bris, Bar Mitzvah and weddings. In funerals and memorial ceremonies it is common to wear black yarmulke.

Wearing a kippa is an ancient custom for Jews to cover their heads during prayer. This probably derives from the fact that in Eastern cultures, it is a sign of respect to cover the head (the custom in Western cultures is the opposite: it is a sign of respect to remove one's hat). Thus, by covering the head during prayer, one showed respect for god and to show that they were servants of god. Whatever the reason given, wearing kippa has always been regarded more as a custom rather than a commandment.
There is no special significance to the yarmulke as a specific type of head covering. Its light weight, compactness and discreteness make it a convenient choice for head cover. There is no connection however, between the yarmulke and the similar skullcap worn by the Pope.
Yarmulkes are available in almost every size and style you can imagine. Small children generally use small diameter yarmulkes, while grown ups generally use larger yarmulkes. It is recently common to see colorful yarmulkes, especially among young children and young men at their twenty's.
