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?

  • Hello,

    We got some musicians ear plugs for our eldest, the only downside is that they didn't at the time make them for young children so they didn't stay in very well, but they were effective. They differ from normal ear plugs by muting all sounds rather than blocking all/certain sounds. £10/pair so quite expensive.
