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?

  • Hi, S has tried out ear defenders at school, but not really taken to them. He prefers earphones and music in some environments and earplugs in others. The earplugs he prefers are like putty and can be softened and popped into the ears. He carries them in his pocket and inserts them when needed.
