  Good headphones but not for airplane December 3, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I purchased these headphones for my 2-year-old son to use while traveling via airplane, and like a previous reviewer, I found that the ambient noise of the airplane drowned out the sound of the DVD player at normal listening levels forcing me to turn the volume up (a lot) in order to hear it. I am now searching for better noise cancelling headphones for our next airplane trip.
  Perfect for our kids November 4, 2008 We bought two sets of these to use with a dual screen DVD player we recently purchased to keep our kids occupied during a trip to the beach. They were great, seemed comfortable and fit really well on their little noggins. Actually, they're adjustable and they even fit me!
  Made for kids.. They will love it :) October 28, 2008 Great Headphones for the children. I bought it for my 2 year old son for a long flight trip and he loves it. Its seems they are not breakable (unless someone wants to cut it with a sharp tool :) and are light weight. My son uses it with ipod videos and portable dvd player. He knows that these are his headphones and so, they are very special. Very good quality.
  great for kids September 30, 2008 These are the perfect size for preschoolers. The only concern, is the black covering came off the ear piece but I was able to get it back on.
  Good Headphones for Kids April 30, 2008 16 out of 16 found this review helpful
Just to clear things up, these are just child sized headphones that have been "hardened" to resist abuse. There are no control mechanisms and other features, just headphones.
Overview- These are just medium-low quality membranes in a hard package sized for little ones.
They seem to have a good size range. The cups can be slid up or down on the support rail a couple of inches for the older kids or left up for the younger ones. I have a 2 and a 5 year old and they fit both fine.
The exterior construction is a decent plastic, light and tough, can withstand a good amount of abuse. The actual contact surfaces seem to be a vinyl like material that is easy to clean, seems to wear well.
The actual acoustic membrane is protected by a plastic grid so if the kid takes them off and starts poking around inside they can't damage them.
The cup is filled with some type of foam, this helps to isolate outside sounds, though its not anything like dedicated noise cancelling or ear muffs. It reduces exterior noise but does not substantially eliminate it.
The wire that connects to your sound device is key, first off its reinforced with extra thick shielding, the ends are reinforced as well. This helps prevent tangling and snagging and breaking. Also from the plug to the cups there is only 1 wire. The wire to the other cup is built into the headband. This reduces the amount of wire hanging around to get tangled or broken. Very nice.
The sound quality is OK. It has good reproduction of low tones, serviceable reproduction of mid tones but poor reproduction of high tones. For its target age group that's probably ok. You can hear voices fine, just don't expect to enjoy your opera too well. Its not for serious music listening, its for kids who really wouldn't know the difference.
That's about it. To recap
Pros- Hardened design, very durable Tangle resistant wire Some exterior noise abatement
Cons- Poor high tone reproduction.
Conclusion- If you have kids and you want to get them their own headphones so they stop destroying yours these are just the ticket.
