Let's talk about Sun Safety!!

Now that summer is here, it's all about outside time here in my household. From playing the bounce house, riding bikes and of course our favorite- splashing around in the pool, we've found ourselves spending a LOT of time outside! 

While I want my kids to have a fun summer, I also want them to be safe...so I'm constantly reminding them about all of our sun safety rules. I remind them to wear their sunscreen and to reapply as needed. I remind them to drink plenty of water so they don't get dehydrated. On particularly hot days, I make sure that we are taking plenty of breaks and not getting too hot. 

Those are pretty typical sun safety rules, right? We all know these and hopefully practice them as well.... but what about sunglasses? How many of us actually put sunglasses on our kids every time they're out in the sun? I have to be honest, it's not something I typically thought about in the past. Despite all my other sun safety precautions, it never occurred to me that sunglasses were really THAT important. That is until I read these few quick facts on the subject:

• UV damage is cumulative and irreversible
• Kids receive 3X more annual UV exposure than adults yet less than 30% of parents are currently protecting their children’s eyes with sunglasses.
• Children’s eyes are more susceptible to sun damage because they have larger pupils and clearer lenses, allowing more UV to penetrate and reach the back of the eyes
  
  Check out The Vision Council's UV Damage and Children Report and The Vision Council’s 2015 UV Protection Report and The Vision Council’s 2016 UV Protection Report for more information on sun safety

Gives us something to think about, right? Certainly makes me think twice about going out without them on those bright days when we're out all day long. So, what do we need to look for in children's sunglasses?

• 100% UVA/UVB Protection
• High Quality Frames
• A comfortable fit, and a style that will kids will love and WANT to wear!

You can find all of these with Babiators! 

Now, if you've heard of Babiators in the past, you probably know the fun adorable style! They provide fun child sized sunglasses that are ideal for even the most stylish child. But it's not just the style that makes these award-winning sunglasses the perfect choice! Check out these other reasons:

·         Safe: Babiators have UV400 lenses that offer 100% UVA and UVB protection and undergo rigorous testing to ensure they’re safe for your child – whether they’re on your child’s face or end up in your child’s mouth.

·         Durable: The sunglasses feature flexible rubber frames, and impact and shatter-resistant lenses that won’t break when you bend, twist, or step on them. Trust us, we’ve tried!

·         Awesome: Classic aviator sunglasses make sure your little one is the coolest kid around.

·         Fit: Babiators are made of a soft material that is comfortable and lightweight. They are designed to fit kids’ faces and don’t pinch the temples or nose. They are available in two sizes: Junior Babiators sunglasses fit most babies 6 months to 3 years. Classic Babiators sunglasses fit most children 3 to 7 years
We had the opportunity for my daughter to try a pair for herself, and let me tell you, they are amazing! First and foremost they fit well...just the right size. The flexible design is ideal too, making them much more kid-friendly than other plastic sunglasses that seem to snap at the first drop!! And let's be honest, kids are going to drop them a lot. While we received the classic black, there are also many other great colors to choose from to make them even more fun for your child to wear! 

That all sounds amazing, right? But that's not even the best part! Babiators are backed by the Lost & Found Guarantee™ – if you lose or break your shades in the first year, Babiators will replace them for free. All you pay is shipping. How amazing is this? I don't know about you, but I must admit that one of the reasons I hesitate to spend money on high quality sunglasses is that I KNOW with my kids, they won't last! Even if they physically hold up, they are inevitably going to be left behind somewhere! So this guarantee is just PERFECT for giving me a little more peace of mind!
