KIDS EAR MUFFS SNR27 - £12.20
KIDS EAR MUFFS SNR27
It's never too early to introduce your kids to health and safety.Children’s hearing is extremely sensitive, and they have very little protection against harmful noise. The hearing protector is easy to wear, with a low profile and no protruding parts that can catch. The wide, foam-filled ear cushions ensure that the set doesn’t squeeze uncomfortably, and there is still plenty of space for the ears inside the shells. The weight is also important to comfort. The Peltor Kid weighs just 175 grams. The Peltor Kid is CE-approved and fits children up to age 7. The Peltor Kid comes in two characteristic colours – neon pink and neon green – for high visibility and fun

The Bottom Line
Pros:“For your child, I would get Peltor Kid ear defenders, from safetysupplies.co.uk. Peltor is the market leader and the children's ones have a SNR of 27. These come in pink or neon green and the parents I know who have bought them found them very well tolerated by their children. This is key, because no matter how good the protection is, if it's uncomfortable it won't be worn. I found no other ear defenders specially made for children.” The Guardian 02/08/08
