Hi, I'm just wondering if anyone knows any good ear defenders or sensory toys...
My 14 y.o daughter struggles with loud noises and we went out to listen to a band (which she loved) but it was too loud so spent the time in the playground where it was quieter and did not take her hands off her ears.
Any suggestions are appreciated
Thanks x
I swear by these, I have several pairs of the blue ones (they're slightly smaller than the clear) https://www.amazon.co.uk/Etymotic-Research-Fidelity-Earplugs-Polybag-Blue-Tip-Clear-Stem/dp/B00G0PPTAK/ref=sr_1_8?dchild=1&keywords=etymotic&qid=1618783996&sr=8-8
I work in music tech, and these have been my go-to for 10 years. They come with a case and I clean them every so often with a little witch hazel or soap.
Thank you, they seem really good but my daughter won't put things in her ears.
These aren't like apples ear buds or the foam ones which are irritating. I might buy a pair and see how she takes to them. Worst case: keep them in the kitchen for when the fire alarm goes off or if you end up at a festival!
Honestly I hate things in my ears & eye masks - feeling constrained in any way. But I hate harsh noises & bright light more...
Yes, I will get a pair in case anyone needs them. Thanks
