Safety Glasses for Kids

Handy Famm kids safety glasses are rated for ages 3 and up and made for kids' faces. Starting at 3 makes eye protection a habit long before kids pick up a hammer or a screwdriver.

Yes. Handy Famm kids safety glasses passed ANSI Z87.1:2020, the US standard for safety eyewear, in independent lab testing. They also passed ASTM F963, the US toy safety standard, and their lenses passed the FDA impact test for eyeglass lenses. They are real eye protection for building, crafts and science projects, sized for kids.

ANSI Z87.1 is the American standard for safety eyewear. It checks that lenses are optically clear, cover enough of the eye, and withstand a drop-ball impact test. Look for it when you buy kids safety glasses: many kids glasses sold online are only toy-tested, not tested as eye protection. Handy Famm glasses meet the standard's basic impact level, which suits home projects and crafts, not high-velocity work like power tools.

Any time something could fly toward their eyes: hammering nails, driving screws, sanding or cutting wood, science experiments, and messy crafts with paint or glue. A simple rule for families: if a grown-up would wear eye protection for the job, so does the kid.

They are designed for kids' faces, not shrunk down from adult sizes. The lightweight frame fits snug, stays put while kids move, and has no pressure points, so kids keep them on.
