Circo Baby Sunglasses With Band By xshellyx on May 23, 2008 - Updated Oct 15, 2011

Like the rest of my family, my 20 month old daughter has light blue eyes which are very light sensitive. She will not leave on sunglasses, regardless of how much better she can see with them on. Sound familiar? She'd rather chew on them and play with them than wear them. I had been considering buying some Baby Banz after a review I saw on here, but then I found these sunglasses by Circo. I was excited because they were a similar design and would save me quite a bit of money! They have 100% UV protection, and a flexible, neoprene like band with a Velcro closure in back. The concept is GREAT, but did it work? Not exactly.

First of all, the band doesn't stay on the widest part of her head, instead it slips down towards the back of her neck. This causes the band to push her ears down. That's not too big of a problem, but right after this happens, she pulls them off. The band doesn't quite adjust small enough for her small head. They fit my 4 year old much better. Maybe if it were tighter, it would stay up where it should be on her head. Since these are made for babies, you'd think they would fit one!

Cute glasses, great price, wonderful concept, but I don't think they are going to get much use from my daughter. If she were a bit younger and didn't know how to take them off of herself, or if they fit a little better, it might be a different story. I'll keep them and maybe they will work better next summer.
