Filter Earplugs for Kids

Oh man. These little things have been a game changer for our son in basketball! He is sensitive to sounds and the buzzer going off would have him covering his ears and running off the court. He couldn’t focus on the game because he was too busy watching the clock so he would know when the buzzer was going to go off. It was getting ridiculous until his coach suggested ear plugs. So I searched and searched for the right ones and came across these! They filter the noise just enough to take the sharpness away from the buzzer but not so much that he can’t hear his coach. They work great! Stay in his ears the whole game and he plays hard! The design is sort of like a screw so they stay in very well. Comfortable, my son never complains about how they feel. Just all around a very good product.

Good sound control, 5 year old wore them to a concert and was not bugged by the loud sounds.

My daughters were complaining that the bus was too loud and they got overwhelmed. My husband has a pair similar to these for the times he wants to scream cry at all the different noises going on in the house. They used these and liked the feel and size. They stayed secure in their ear but after a few weeks they stopped using them and are sitting on my kitchen counter. One of them lost them and I guarantee I vacuumed one up and the other is rolling around the bus floor. So, they work well but are easily lost even with the case. I would recommend them for any one on the AS for school and activities.

My son has some sensory issues and noise is one of them. He refused to wear the clunky ear muff style of ear protection, because his classmates would tease him. We had tried several different brands of ear protection for him, but these were the only ones that worked! 1. They have directions to show you how to cut them down so they fit snugly but also discretely in your child's ear 2. They have an applicator to help put them in and take them out. While we found it is not necessary to use it, it was helpful to him to know that the ear plugs would never be "stuck" 3. They dampen just enough to stop sensory overload, but still allow him to hear us and have normal conversation. 4. They come with this really cute plastic case with different stickers your kiddo can use to personalize it. I like the case because we take them everywhere and don't have to worry about pocket lint, pocketbook dust etc. They are always a pair and ready to go! Bottom line...they are a little pricey but worth every single penny if you have searched for a earplug to custom fit your child and are frustrated! I can't tell you how much the other brands we tried add up to, but these in the big picture were cheaper! I will be buying again!

I’m an adult with small ear canals. The description states these are good for kids 5-12 or adults with small canals. I’ve used the center pink smaller one from softvox successfully and probably should have just stuck with those, but always over thinking things that maybe it could be improved. These, the white ones, are seriously small, maybe for 4-7 year olds. They go too deep and are hard to get out for me and not putting in as far they were not effective.. the larger blue ‘adult’ one size softvox actually aren’t bad. They don’t go in as far but are still comfortable and work. ALL of them do require a bit of finesse to get in properly and I find myself needing several attempts to get it right. When properly seated they bock the noise pretty good. If you don’t notice a noise reduction it’s because it’s not in correctly. I use them for sleep as I’m very sensitive to noise. Don’t know how on earth people sleep with white noise machines lol. ALL of these will block the noise of a fan but a loud A/C will only be significantly muffled but still heard. But, better than nothing and I have gotten used to that. I sleep on my side and find the pillow works for one side and only put in the exposed ear. When I turn over I do just pull it out and usually am sleepy enough to just go back to sleep and not need to switch ears with the plugs. I don’t find any of them comfortable enough to sleep on, or to consciously wear that length of time.

UPDATE: Been using these for weeks with no issues, my right earplug came apart when trying to pull it out and became stuck in my ear. I was able to get it but will not be using these again after that. I was able to grab it with tweezers but that’s dangerous and I can’t imagine trying to do that with a kid bought these for myself, I’m 25 but have small ears. I am a super light sleeper and have been wearing foam earplugs for several years, but I slways end up wirh pain and sores because they’re all just way too big, even the ones marketed for small ears. These seem to be a great alternative to the foam. They don’t cause me sores and they fit really comfortably. I definitely hear more with these so it’s not quite as noise canceling as the foam earplugs so that sucks a bit, but it’s much better than not being able to wear them at all from sores. I have some trouble getting them positioned properly in my right ear to form a seal which wasn’t a problem with the foam since it conforms, but if I sleep on that side my pillow helps block some noise. I’ll probably get these again whenever I need replacements, it’s definitely going to save money over buying new foam ones all the time

I love these! I am an adult who was asked by my hearing and speech pathologist if I use ear buds. I told her no because they don't stay in my ears. She said, "I can see why because you have ear drums the size of a small child's." I got these to block out the loudness of going to local concerts. My ears would ring for at least three days later. I also had an issue with my ear drums closing up on me during a short flight for a vacation. I have used these ear plugs for a local concert, and they worked wonderfully. They didn't fall out easily and I didn't feel silly with the throw away orange ones that would stick out of my ears and make me look ridiculous....lol. I'm hoping that they will also work the next time I fly somewhere, fingers crossed.

I have tiny ears these actually stay in my ear and dont make me sweat a bunch

Works well for a 7 year old at movies and music venues. A little hard to get in perfectly, but once they’re in it’s great.

I have been using these for years. After several years, they finally lose shape, but these are the only ear plugs that fit my ears comfortably for everyday use. I am an adult with small ears (I guess), and I wear them whenever I go out, as the brakes on the bicycles in Japan screech at a high pitch all the time, and the train announcements at the stations are so loud. A daily necessity.

Den passade min frus små öron perfekt.

Très bouchon d'oreille avec une bonne qualité de fabrication. j'ai acheté ce produit pour allez voir des concert et ça coupe très bien le son. Je le recommande sans problème et de plus les écouteurs sont livré avec leur boîte de protection

Brilliant at reducing loud / overwhelming noise and pitch - I am autistic and use these frequently and they just help filter sound slightly. Very comfy and ideal for small ears - adult sized ear plugs don’t fit me. I much prefer these to loop earplugs!
