Which are more likely to stay on her face, Babiators or Baby Banz? She usually tries to pull hats off, but gives up if I distract her, so I'm hoping sunglasses might be the same. Ideally, she can wear them this summer and next, is that wishful thinking? She will be 10 months at the end of May.
Babiators are cuter but not if she won't wear them.

My 8 mo old keeps her baby banz on no problem. They are on the tightest setting and there is a lot of room to grow so I'm sure they will fit next summer as well. I really like them so far!

My LO wouldn't wear either last summer! But this year she won't go outside without her "eyes".

R still won't wear either. She ripped off the baby banz last summer at 6 months.

I haven't tried both, but we're very happy with Babiators! He does sometimes pull them off, but he'd do that with any glasses. They seem really comfy, and even though my baby has a giant head, they fit great and are so flexible I'm sure they'll be good next year too.

We've tried the baby banz with quite good luck. Trick for us is that he has to notice that they help shield the sun. If we put them on in the shade they come off, same thing in a sunny situation they stay on.

LO has babiators and they're adorable but she wouldn't really keep them on without trying to chew on them until after a year old.

My son had baby banz from about 4 months to 16 months. He never pulled them off.

I ordered both and will return the ones she pulls off faster. Though Dh got prett excited for the babiators!

I wish my LO could wear babiators! He has a small head and my nose (no bridge) so they would fall off instantly. We have a pair from BabyGap and another pair from Joe Fresh.

@Sammyfab: I guess lucky for us, she has a pretty big head

14+ months and has always and still pulls off every single pair of sunglasses, including Baby Banz (though they are still too loose on her.)

We use baby banz for our 9 month old... When she keys is put them on her. She has suddenly started taking them off right when we put them on. I love how well the stay on her and how adjustable the sizing is.

@Foodnerd81: I recently ordered both Baby Banz and Babiators, too with the intent to return the ones I don't like. We should both post a review. I think mine both arrive tomorrow.

@Foodnerd81: Babiators are WAY cuter!! I also like that you can register them and they'll send you a new pair if you lose them or they break. This is silly but M only pulls them off right when I put them on because she doesn't realize she can still see through them(I guess she thinks I am trying to cover her eyes?). So I've started putting them on her then immediately waving at her and shaking a toy in front of her. Once she realizes she can see through them she's usually fine and won't pull them off.

@Foodnerd81: yeah, we should do a fashion show! I'm totally crazy and bought the "vintage" baby banz, the regular ones, AND babiators, just to compare.

We have that babiators and they're so darn cute! DS takes them off frequently, but hopefully come summer time, he'll rock them for a longer period of time.

@Anagram: OK you make me feel better. I only got the 'retro' baby banz and the regular babiators.

I got the Retro Baby Banz and love them. LO can get them off if she really wants to, but not as easily as she can "regular" sunglasses (which I believe the Babiators are?) LO is 7 months old and so far they are a "must buy" especially since we live in FL and have a car without tinted windows!

@Foodnerd81: okay. I got all of mine in and it's a tough call. LO is too active these days for me to get great pics, but the (red) babiators are the cutest--however, for some reason she rips them off IMMEDIATELY.
The regular baby Banz and the retro baby Banz are just so-so, but I guess because of the strap she leaves them alone for longer. So.... Maybe I should buy a strap for the babiators? How did they look on your LO?
Here's my fashion show!

Oh my god- she is too cute! I love love that last photo! I just tried them on her this morning and she pulled them both off right away, but we were inside and it wasn't sunny. The babiators are way cuter but they come off faster. I'm going to try when it's sunny and see what happens. Hopefully I can get a photo!
