Beyond Sunscreen: Why Kids Need Sunnies Year-RoundUV rays don’t take a break in winter or on cloudy days, which is why sunnies are just as important as hats and sunscreen. At Roshambo Baby Australia, our flexible, chew-proof frames with 100% UVA/UVB protection make it easy (and fun!) to keep little eyes safe in every season.

When we think about protecting our kids from the sun, sunscreen is usually the first thing that comes to mind. But here’s the thing—UV rays don’t take a holiday. They can cause harm to little eyes all year round, even on cloudy days or in cooler weather. That’s why sunglasses aren’t just a summer accessory—they’re a year-round essential for your child’s health and comfort.

At Roshambo Baby Australia, our mission is to make protecting your little one’s eyes easy, stylish, and fun—whatever the season.

1. Why Eye Protection Matters Year-Round

Spring: stronger daylight hours and more time outdoors.
Summer: the most intense UV rays, plus glare off water or sand can double the exposure.
Autumn & Winter: UV exposure is still present, along with eye irritation from wind, dust, and cold.

The Australian sun is especially strong, so sunglasses with 100% UVA/UVB protection are just as important as hats and sunscreen.

2. The Roshambo Difference

Our sunnies are more than cute—they’re built for real life with kids:

100% UVA/UVB protection with optional polarised lenses for glare reduction.
Flexible, chew-proof frames (yes, really—go ahead and bend them!).
Ultra-lightweight design for all-day comfort.
Safe, BPA-free materials for peace of mind.

3. Styling Sunnies for Every Season

Spring Pastels: Goonies Mint, Skywalker Blue, and Rusty Rose.
Summer Brights: Kelly Glitter Kapowski Pink, Mfly Red, Thundercat Teal & Black.
Autumn Neutrals: Classic Black, Gizmo, and Sandlot.

Mix and match with hats, beanies, or jackets—sunnies look good with everything.

4. Sizing That Grows With Them

Kids grow fast, but our sizes cover baby to adult, so the whole family can match:

Baby (0–2 yrs)
Toddler (2–4 yrs)
Junior (5–12 yrs)
Adult (small & large)

Need help with fit? Adjustable strap kits and ear grips keep sunnies secure during adventures.

5. Spring Into Action – Restocks Coming This September

We know many favourites have been hard to get—but good news! Popular colours like Goonies Mint, Kelly Kapowski Pink, and Gizmo will be back in stock this September. Be quick—restocks don’t stick around for long.

6. Tips for Getting Kids to Keep Their Sunnies On

Let them choose their own colour—it builds excitement.
Introduce sunnies indoors first so they get used to the feeling.
Use an adjustable strap for extra security.
Be a role model—if you wear yours, they’ll want to copy you!

The Takeaway

Eye protection for kids isn’t seasonal—it’s essential. By making sunnies part of their daily routine, you’re protecting their vision for years to come.
