From the time your child is born, it is important to take great care of his or her ears in order to protect him or her from any hearing damage or loss.

As you may know, hearing is something that cannot be repaired or reversed.  That said, earplugs are used for a variety of reasons in older children (3 years and up) and adults, such as while swimming, flying on an airplane, or attending a loud concert. The benefits of earplugs are invaluable and with modern-day technology most age groups benefit from safe ear plugs.

Ultimately, many parents of very young kids wonder, “Do infant ear plugs exist?”

Do Infant Ear Plugs Exist?

The answer to that question is… yes. In fact, HEAROS silicone ear plugs can be used for infants. However, it is important to be aware of how to follow ear plugs instructions and use them properly if you chose to use infant ear plugs.

Please keep in mind:

• That an infant’s ears are much more delicate than an older child’s ears and in most cases, doctors do not recommend putting earplugs inside their ear canals.
• Please know that infant ear plugs can serve as a choking hazard if they fall out. Keep a close eye on your infant and ensure that the earplugs are inserted properly into the ears.

To help parents protect their infants, HEAROS offer safe, silicone earplugs. With a noise reduction rating of 21, Silicone ear plugs from HEAROS can help prevent the risks of loud noises or water infection. 

More About Infant Ear Plugs

When using infant ear plugs, we encourage all parents to make sure you choose hearing protectors that are designed specifically for infants. Our earplugs are intended to be molded to the outer part of the ear, covering up the ear canal instead of being inserted into tiny ears. This reduces the risk of damaging or irritating the ears, while still giving your little one some protection from loud noises or water.

Parents should also pay close attention to the materials that infant earplugs are made from. The material should mold to your infant’s ears, be soft and comfortable to touch. We believe infant ear plugs made from moldable silicone are advantageous – as this material will mold to the ear canal upon application.

Infant Ear Plugs For Swimming

Finally, if you are taking your infant swimming, be sure to select a pair of infant ear plugs that are waterproof. Waterproof ear plugs that exist on the market will not only keep noise levels to a minimum, but they prevent ear infections and water irritation (e.g. swimmer’s ear).
