hypersensitivity to noise

My 10 year old is very sensitive to noise, which can make working in a noisy classroom difficult, and today made a school trip to the panto very stressful for both of us - we had to leave.

Has anyone got any ideas about how to deal with this problem, which i fear is goin to be harder to cope with at secondary school?

 

Would earplugs help in places like the pantomime?

  • When we go out anywhere I tend to have in my bag mp3 player with headphones on it and also Nintendo DS which headphones can be plugged into.  This has saved us a number of times.  Sometimes just to muffle the noise slightly.
