It’s not always easy to get kids to wear kids glasses. Whether they are prescription ones for nearsightedness or simply sunglasses for the beach, children don’t exactly always jump at the opportunity to put on a pair. Perhaps the best way to encourage your child to wear prescription glasses is to simply show him how much better he can see with them on. They may ease any vision-related headaches, which would instantly add to wanting to wear them. As for sunglasses, try explaining to your child that it is important to protect our eyes when we are outside. Of course, come cute frames wouldn’t hurt, either! Let your child pick out her own pair – just like clothing, kids are more likely to wear and be proud of glasses they have picked out themselves.

Here are some suggestions:

Channel your child’s inner scientist with some cool “Dolce” frames:

Or show your daughter that she can still look like a princess and stay “Pretty in Pink”:

Try pointing out characters in books or TV shows that wear glasses. The more your child is exposed to glasses, the more likely he or she will be willing to wear them. Another great way to show that glasses are cool is to wear a pair yourself! Being just like Mommy or Daddy is something that all kids strive for, so take advantage of that! If you don’t wear them already, consider getting a pair of empty frames to help make your child feel more comfortable with wearing them. You don’t have to spend much – check out our wide selection of $19.00 glasses, which includes this stylish pair, “Whitney”:

Encouraging your child to wear kids glasses may be difficult, but it is certainly not impossible! Incorporating them into fun activities, such as establishing that they must be worn during story time, is a good way to ease your child into wearing them all the time.
