Baby Banz Giveaway

***Congratulations Bunny B, you were randomly picked to win the Baby Banz. Thanks all who entered my contest. I hope to get to review and have another in the future. Andrea ***


I'm excited to get my review and giveaway up for Baby Banz sunglasses, and thanks to Shari (Operations Manager) for the opportunity to have this review.


I first saw the Baby Banz online and my first reactions was - "What a great idea, sunglasses that would possibly stay on a babies head because of the strap." Then of course I thought about how much talk there is about protecting your eyes from UV damage and that immediately made me want to get a pair to at least try my little girl.


What do I think of the Baby Banz? Well, I love the idea, the cute styles for boys and girls (I got the diva camo ones in pink), the thick adjustable strap (that says Baby Banz on the back) to keep them on. The quality of the product I believe is really good and they're well made.


What's not so good (in my opinion) is that my daughter won't leave them on at ten months with or without a strap. Then when she pulls them down they're around her neck (like a necklace) and she constantly is pulling to get them off. Also in order for her ears to not be bent down while wearing them, I have to pull the strap up higher in the back of her head and that causes the bottom part of the glasses to dig into her chunky little cheeks, and if I loosen the strap they don't fit correctly.


Overall though I really like the idea of the Baby Banz, especially if your child will keep them on. They're very stylish and with all the different colors and sizes to choose from - there is a pair for everyone. Good product and good price. Read more about all the products at Baby Banz here and check out other reviews here.


Here's the fun part - Shari from Baby Banz is giving me the opportunity to give a pair away to one of you. Check out Baby Banz and tell me what color you would choose and for a boy or girl if you won. Leave a comment with a valid e-mail address. If you would like a second entry - I'd appreciate a blog post about this review and contest, lets give lots of people a chance to win. If you do blog about it; please leave the URL in a separate comment. Contest will end Monday, May 26th and I will contact the winner and post the winner here. If the winner doesn't respond in a few days I will choose a new winner. Good luck!

These are CUTE and very practical shades!
We are an Air Force family, so I would definitely have to pick the "Pink Diva Camo" for my 5 month-old, or the "Little Hunter" for my two year-old. Great review!

I would love the grey camo baby banz (0-2) for our sweet baby boy. We were going to try to order them, but this would definitely save us the money, which would be a huge help! Thanks for offering this!!!
