Kids' eclipse glasses
Are solar eclipse glasses safe for kids?
Yes — children's eclipse glasses use the exact same certified filter as our adult range. Here's what matters when you buy solar eclipse glasses for a child for the 12 August 2026 eclipse:
-
Kids' eclipse glasses are never a weaker version. Same dual-layer Silver-Black polymer filter as our adult glasses — CE Category II, tested to EN ISO 12312-2. Only the children's artwork changes.
-
Sized for smaller faces. The flexible paper frame sits close to the face. No strict minimum age — for under-8s, check no light leaks around the edges and supervise during viewing.
-
Children pick their own design. Every kids' eclipse glasses design is the same price and the same certified filter, so they're far more likely to keep them on through totality.

Safe viewing, step by step
How to help your child watch the eclipse safely
Solar eclipse glasses only protect when they're worn correctly. Three simple rules to share with your kids before the big day:
-
Glasses on first. Put the eclipse glasses on while looking at the ground or indoors — never glance at the Sun without them.
-
Now look up. Through certified solar eclipse glasses the Sun should be the only thing you can see — everything else goes black.
-
Look away, then take them off. Turn away from the Sun before removing the glasses, and supervise young children the whole time.

Kids' eclipse glasses FAQ
Kids' eclipse glasses — frequently asked questions
Are solar eclipse glasses safe for children?
Yes — when certified and used under adult supervision. Every pair of kids' eclipse glasses in this collection is CE Category II certified and tested to EN ISO 12312-2 for direct solar observation, the same filter as our adult range. Inspect before use and don't use damaged pairs.
From what age can a child wear eclipse glasses?
There is no fixed minimum age, but the glasses must cover the eyes fully and stay in place, and an adult should supervise at all times. For toddlers who won't keep glasses on, indirect viewing methods (like pinhole projection) are safer.
Do kids' eclipse glasses have a weaker filter?
No — the filter is identical to our adult solar eclipse glasses: CE Category II, EN ISO 12312-2 tested. Only the printed children's artwork differs.
How do children's eclipse glasses fit a small face?
The paper frames are flexible and sit close to the face. Check that no gaps let direct sunlight in from above or below, and have the child look at the ground while putting them on or taking them off.
Can I order kids' eclipse glasses for a school class or youth group?
Yes — 50- and 100-packs are the most economical for groups, and we supply schools and institutions across the EU with invoicing and certification documents for procurement.
How do I know the kids' eclipse glasses are genuine?
Each pair carries a scratch-off QR code to verify authenticity, and our certification documents are public on the EU compliance page.
