    Young kids' eye colors haven't fully become their true color. One girl I know had blue eyes for the first 7 years of her life, but they changed to brown. Sadly, I don't think there's a real, natural way to change eye color. You could use color contacts.

    How can I take my colored contacts out?
    Community Answer
    Use one hand to hold your eyelid open. Use the other hand to gently pinch the contact with your forefinger and thumb. (This might take some practice, so don't worry if the contact doesn't come out right away.) Once you've removed the contact, put it into a case with fresh contact solution.
