Description
Start baby out right with hearing protection habits that will last a lifetime and protect them from permanent noise-induced hearing damage! Baby earmuffs make a great baby shower gift!
The BANZ® Baby Earmuffs ear protectors effectively attenuate harmful loud noises without shutting out other ambient sounds.
Baby Earmuffs are easy to wear, with a low profile and no protruding parts that can catch on things. The wide, foam-filled cushions ensure that the set doesn't squeeze uncomfortably, and there is plenty of space for the ears inside the shells.

What ages are the Earmuffs for?
Ear muffs can be worn by children of all ages. However, we recommend that they are not used for children less than 6 months old. This is due to the fact that newborns heads are quite soft and the ear muffs are a reasonably tight fit.
PLEASE NOTE: This is ONLY A RECOMMENDATION. We have had customers use our ear muffs on children less than 6 months with no problems whatsoever. Should you find the ear muffs to be tight, they can be stretched slightly. Simply place two chairs back to back, and stretch the ear muffs over the two chairs. After leaving the ear muffs for a while, they will have stretched by a small amount, making them a bit less tight when worn.
Sizing
To ensure a proper fit - please be sure both ear cups fully surround the ears and make contact with the skull. There should be no large gaps between the wearer and the ear muffs. The sound protection level is dependent on a good fit- please size up if your child is on the larger side of the size scale.

What about newborns?
While Banz® Baby Earmuffs are rated for ages 0-2, the published suggested minimum age is 3 months as most Pediatricians recommend keeping newborns sheltered from loud noise exposure until at least this age. Please check with your pediatrician before exposing your child to loud noise environments.
