School just let out for the summer and though the kiddies have sleepaway camp, pool days and vacation on the mind, we’re thinking about all the exciting fall eyewear trends for boys and girls alike! Attention-grabbing colors like bright greens and adorable purples, whimsical patterns and motifs, along with stylish and easygoing silhouettes make these specs and sunnies kid appropriate and (more importantly) kid approved. Autumn will be here before you know it, and tots will soon be popping on these frames and running to the playground to show them off to their friends. Check out some of the top trends for kiddos, below.

Boys’ Colors Stand-out hues like eye-catching limes, neon oranges, fiery reds, electric blues and radiant yellows, mixed with multi-colored tortoises, an array of navy, royal and sky blues, pale greens and earthy browns
