Lucid Audio HearMuffs Kids Hearing Protection Red/White (Over-the-ear Sound Protection Ear Muffs Ages 5+)

Got these for my kid bc his classroom is so loud that my husband’s watch freaked out and was warning us to flee to get away from the sound before it caused permanent hearing damage, they work great and we’ve discovered many uses for them since buying them! Sporting events, concerts, plays, large indoor events (just used them at a monster truck show last week!), family outings, We take them to the movies bc it’s always painfully loud and we just learned that in modern movie theaters the staff do not have the ability to change the volume of the movies. Some movies theaters are stocking these type of products due to not being able to adjust the volume to something non-painful. You have to ask if they have them. We just bring our own since I KNOW these work and movie theaters will cur every corner they can. At school, since our kiddo got his, I’ve noticed that other kids got them, then more, now almost every kid in his class has them! The teachers like them bc it helps calm down upset kids quicker and helps overstimulated kids to “escape” sensory overload by putting these on and chillin’ in the “calm down corner” to get a break away from the chaos. For those who don’t know what that is, it’s a corner of the room that resembles a book-book, any kid is allowed to use it at any time to take a break from the other kids, they are usually partially shielded (teachers can still see the kid but kid sees less. Some have white noise machines, books, mats or plush rugs to lay on, fidget toys, and lots and lots of pillows!! It’s not used as a punishment, but for building “check in” skills and to recognize when they need to step away from a situation and calm down before returning. Ours even has a pectoral of breathing techniques to help them calm down. The whole room is quieter now (I would have expected it to get louder for the teachers, but nope.). The kids seem to be less distracted, scream less, and are able to focus better on their project and group activities. They also report that the kids say it’s easier to hear the person talking tnext to them bc the background noise is damped by these! Who knew!??

These are far and away the BEST style for toddlers and babies. We also purchased the (competitors) style that has the wire mechanism at the ear, and our almost 3 year old found them too pinchy. When it came to the competitors version, he didn’t like the amount of pressure on his ears, and also didn’t like that they were too complicated for him to put on and off himself. This (more simple) style of headband is less collapsible (therefore less portable), but seem much much more comfortable. Bonus that he can take them on and off himself (which is important to him). THESE ONES ARE THE WINNER. Sizing Comparison: Red ones are the style advertised as 5-10, and Blue ones are the style advertised as under 3. Although the red ones are a TEENSY bit bigger, I think it is unlikely that they would actually fit a 10 year old. But the red pair certainly work for a toddler, and we use the blue pair for an infant.
