First Day of Summer Kick-Off! Baby Banz Sunglasses Review and Giveaway!
10:06 AM Posted by CalgaryDaddy
Summer Is Finally Here!
With the long awaited arrival of Summer ( yes, its true.... we do get summer in Canada!) Becky and I hope to spend as much time outside with Kyron as possible. As new parents to a five month old baby, we have to be careful about the amount of sun that Kyron gets in his eyes and protect him from too much UV exposure. I was impressed when I came across a pair of Baby Banz sunglasses in a local children's store and think that this product is amazing!
About Baby Banz....
In 2001, Baby Banz, Inc. found its start in "the land down under," one of the harshest UV climates in the world. One Australian’s fruitless search for a proper pair of baby sunglasses for his infant son forced him to take action, leading to the development of the Original Baby Banz sunglasses.
First introduced to the American market in 2002, Baby Banz are best known for their unique wrap-around, banded design and 100% UV protective lenses. Often imitated, but never duplicated, Baby Banz continue to be the standard for baby and children's sunglasses and UV protection worldwide.
Baby Banz are the keystone for the expanding Baby Banz Protection Collection that includes: adjustable baby and toddler sun hats, UPF 50 swimwear and flap hats, our cool new Retro Banz and for winter, mirrored Ski Banz. Baby Banz sells its Protection Collection line nationwide in a variety of outlets including optical and specialty baby stores.
Here are some pictures of Kyron and his pair of Baby Banz....
Cool or what?
Becky and I make sure that Kyron wears his Baby Banz everytime we go out. Especially in Calgary ( aka Sunshine City...) where we get the most days of sunshine per year of any Canadian city!
Cool Features:
Apart from the UV protection and cool look of these glasses, we really love the wrap around strap! As an active baby, Kyron loves to throw things out of his carseat...but this strap keeps the glasses on his head and in place at all times! There really is nothing like this on the market today!
Baby Banz has a full assortment of products that offer amazing protection. They can be purchased at a store near you or online at http://usa.babybanz.com/ . And at under $20/pair, these glasses are an amazing value!

Oh they have such a great selection! I like the Urban Grey Camo since they would be for a baby boy.
